Honey Garlic Chicken

It really is a great substitute for takeout Chinese chicken! at 300kcal a serving you’re already saving a lot of calories. It took me WAY LESS TIME to make this than it would have taken to place a takeout order on seamless….just sayin.
Servings 8

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb chicken breast cut into 1/2″ pieces
  • 1/2 c corn starch
  • FOR THE SAUCE
  • 1/3 c honey
  • 6 garlic cloves minced (shortcut. Buy DOROT frozen garlic cubes)
  • 4 tbsp soy sauce
  • 4 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp water

Instructions
 

  • Heat a large non-stick skillet on medium high heat. Add 1tbsp cooking oil and let it get hot. Toss the chicken in the corn starch and then add chicken to the pan.
  • Let it cook a few minutes and turn on each side until it starts to brown
  • Combine the sauce mixture in a mason jar and shake it up until all combined.
  • Take chicken off the pan and add the sauce ingredients, use a little more water here if necessary. Stir well, turn up the heat and let it boil a little bit. It may take a few minutes for this to thicken. It thickens more when the chicken is added back.
  • Once thick add the chicken back. Toss well and serve!
