Ingredients
Chicken
200 g chicken breast
1 tsp black pepper
0,5 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
Sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp sambal
30 ml water
1 tbsp flour
Sesame seeds - amount to taste
Instructions
Cut the chicken into cubes and marinate with the black pepper, ground ginger, garlic powder, soy sauce and sesame oil. Let it sit briefly so the flavours can develop.
Cook the chicken in a pan without adding extra oil.
In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, sambal, flour and water.
After 3 minutes of cooking, pour the sauce over the chicken and stir well. Continue cooking until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened nicely.
Taste and adjust with extra sambal, honey or seasoning if needed.
Finish by stirring in the sesame seeds.
