Ingredienti

1 1/2 lb (680g) chicken breast (, cut into bite-size chunks)

1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce

1/3 cup bourbon

1/4 cup water

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

3 cloves crushed garlic

1/4 cup finely chopped onion

2 tablespoons olive oil

sesame seeds (, for garnishing, optional)

chopped chives (, for garnishing, optional)

Istruzioni

For the marinade: combine soy sauce, bourbon, water, vinegar, sugar, ginger, red pepper flakes, garlic and chopped onion in a large zip-lock plastic bag and mix well. Add chicken breast chunks, seal bag and marinate in the fridge for as long as you can, at least 4 hours, turning the bag occasionally.

In a large skillet heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken chunks and cook until the meat is no longer pink. Pour half the marinade over the chicken and and stir to coat. Reduce heat to simmer. Cook until the marinade thickens and the chicken chunks are caramelized on the outside, about 20 minutes.

Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped chives, if desired. Serve over hot rice. Enjoy!
