Sesame Chicken Skewers with Ginger Glaze

Ingredients

• 1 lb Chicken breast, cubed
• 2 tbsp Sesame oil
• 3 tbsp Soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 1 tsp Ginger, grated
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp Sesame seeds
• 1 tbsp Cornstarch

Instructions

1. 1In a medium bowl, whisk together the 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1 teaspoon of grated ginger, 2 cloves of minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch until well combined.
2. 2Add the 1 lb of chicken breast, cubed, to the bowl with the marinade. Toss gently to ensure all the chicken pieces are coated. Let the chicken marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature.
3. 3While the chicken is marinating, soak your skewers in water for at least 10 minutes to prevent them from burning. Once marinated, thread the chicken cubes evenly onto the soaked skewers.
4. 4Heat a grill or a large skillet over medium heat. If using a skillet, ensure it is preheated before adding the skewers.
5. 5Place the chicken skewers onto the hot grill or into the hot skillet. Cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes per side. The chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
6. 6Remove the cooked chicken skewers from the heat. Sprinkle the 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds over the skewers just before serving.
