Preparation Steps
In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, cornstarch, and sesame oil.
Add the chicken to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the skillet in a single layer and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and browned.
Pour any remaining marinade into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and coats the chicken.
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired. Serve immediately over rice.
