Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pound (0.68kg) boneless, skinless chicken, Note 1
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoon cornstarch ((only needed if stir frying chicken))
1/3 cup (75 ml) low sodium soy sauce (e.g. Kikkoman)
1/2 cup (120ml) water
1/4 cup (60g, 2 ounces) apple sauce, apple juice or orange juice
1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon Bourbon (optional)
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes ((for low-medium spice))
1 teaspoon minced garlic ((or 1 clove or frozen cube or 1/4 tsp garlic powder)
1 teaspoon mince or grated fresh ginger ((or 1 frozen cube (or 1/4 tsp ground ginger powder))
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 green onions, chopped
2 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • HEAT GRILL OR OVEN if using. See cooking options for chicken below.
  • PREPARE SAUCE: Combine all sauce ingredients in a bowl and whisk to mix well.
  • COOK CHICKEN USING ONE OF THESE OPTIONS. In all cases, transfer to a plate after cooking and keep warm. Note that recipe will take longer with some cooking methods. ° Stir fry bite size chicken: Cut up chicken into bite size pieces, place in bag with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and 1/2 teaspoon salt, shake until lightly coated. Sauté in oil in a skillet on medium high heat in two batches until lightly browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes depending on size of pieces. ° Stir fry full size chicken pieces: Dust chicken with cornstarch and salt. Sauté chicken in a bit of oil in pan on medium high heat, transfer to a board, let sit for 5 minutes, then cut into bite size pieces. Keep warm.° Grill chicken (my preference if you have a grill handy - quick and easy): Toss the larger pieces of chicken with a bit of oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill on medium high for a 3-4 minutes per side. Let rest for 5 minutes, then cut into bite size pieces.° Bake chicken: drizzle breasts or thighs with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Baked in pan lined with parchment (for easy clean up) at 425F/218C for about 18 minutes. Rest for 5 minutes, then cut into bite size pieces. ° Sous vide chicken: at 144F/62C for 1.5 to a maximum of 4 hours. Here is a recipe to follow for sous vide chicken if you need one.
  • COOK SAUCE AND TOSS WITH CHICKEN: Heat skillet to medium high. Add sauce and cook, stirring, until it starts to boil and thicken about 3-4 minutes. Add chicken and stir to coat. Lower heat and cook for another 2 minutes just until chicken is well coated with sauce and heated through. If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon or two or water or juice. Serve over rice if desired. Garnish with chopped green onions and/or sesame seeds if you like.
