A flavorful and comforting dish featuring tender chicken thighs marinated in a savory garlic and ginger sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb. Chicken Thighs (boneless, skinless – cut into small chunks)
  • 1 Egg
  • 3 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 3/4 cup Water
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Ginger (very finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Garlic (very finely chopped)

  • 1 tsp Sesame Oil
  • 2 tbsp Avocado Oil
  • Green Onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Add the chicken chunks and toss until they are coated evenly. Let them marinate for about 15-20 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Sauce: While your chicken marinates, grab another bowl and whisk the water, soy sauce, brown sugar, white wine vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and onion together.
  3. Heat Your Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
  4. Cook the Chicken: Carefully add the marinated chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Add the Sauce: Pour in your prepared sauce and stir gently to coat the chicken evenly. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
  6. Final Touches: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
