1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

2 tablespoons cornstarch

2 tablespoons sesame oil, divided

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons honey

1 teaspoon sriracha

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Scallions, chopped, for serving

DIRECTIONS:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sriracha, ginger, garlic, sesame seeds, and 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil. Set aside.

In a large bowl, season the chicken with salt and pepper and toss with cornstarch.

Heat a large skillet over high heat at least 2 minutes. Add oil and chicken to pan and stir fry until golden brown, 5-6 minutes.
