30 Minute Honey Garlic Ginger Chicken
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
- 2 tbsp all purpose flour
- Salt and black pepper
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1.5 inch piece fresh ginger grated (about 1.5 tbsp)
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 6 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
- 5 tbsp honey
- ½ - 1 lemon juiced
- Cooked rice and steamed broccoli for serving
Instructions
- Toss cubed chicken with flour, salt, and pepper.
- In a bowl, whisk ginger, garlic, soy sauce, honey, and half the lemon juice.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Sear chicken until golden, 2-3 mins per side.
- Pour sauce over chicken. Simmer for 8-10 mins, until sauce is thickened and chicken is cooked.
- Remove from heat. Stir in remaining lemon juice to taste.
- Serve immediately with rice and broccoli.
Notes
- Grate the ginger for the best texture and flavor.
- For a thicker sauce, mix 1 tsp cornstarch with 1 tbsp water and stir in during the last minute of cooking.
- Cook the chicken in batches if needed to avoid steaming and ensure a good sear.
