Out of the Ordinary Honey Sesame Chicken







42 And he commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one appointed by God to be judge of the living and the dead.
43 To him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name." - Acts 10:42-43








1 small egg
2 Tbsp cornstarch 
1 pinch each salt & pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken tenderloins
2 T vegetable oil (for frying) 

Sauce
3 T soy sauce
1 T water 
½ T toasted sesame oil
2 T brown sugar 
1½ T rice vinegar 
3 T honey
2 T Mirin
1 inch fresh ginger, grated 
1 t roasted garlic, mashed
2 T sesame seeds 
Pinch chili flakes
1 T cornstarch 


2 c cooked jasmine rice

Veggies
1 chopped bok choy
1 leek, sliced



In a large bowl, whisk the egg, add 2 T cornstarch, and a pinch of salt and pepper and whisk again.
Cut chicken into 1 inch pieces. 
Toss the chicken in the egg and cornstarch mixture.
Heat a large skillet with 2 T of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. 
When the oil is very hot, add the chicken and all of the mixture.
Prepare the sauce. 
In a small bowl stir together the soy sauce, water, sesame oil, brown sugar, rice vinegar, honey, Mirin, fresh ginger, minced garlic, cornstarch, and sesame seeds.
Once the chicken is cooked through and golden brown and add the veggies. 
They cook quickly, then pour the sauce over top. 
Toss the chicken and veggies to coat in the sauce. 
The sauce will begin to thicken as soon as it hits the heat.
Once the chicken is coated and the sauce thickened, turn off the heat.
