# Ingredients:

1½ pounds chicken breasts, no skin or bones, chopped into cubes about 1 inch
02 -
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
03 -
3 tablespoons of cornstarch
04 -
½ teaspoon table salt

3 minced garlic cloves

2 teaspoons of cornstarch

1 teaspoon of sriracha for some spice

# Steps:
01 -
Pat the raw chicken dry with paper towels. Dice into little chunks, about an inch each. Sprinkle salt and pepper, tossing in cornstarch to coat it all in a bowl.
02 -
Combine honey, broth, soy sauce, ginger, cornstarch, sriracha, and garlic in a small bowl. Stir it well with a whisk, and keep handy until it's time to cook.
03 -
Warm a big skillet on medium-high heat with a tablespoon of oil. Cook chicken chunks in smaller portions, about 5 to 6 minutes each, until golden and done. Move to a plate with a lid to keep warm.
04 -
Pour the mixed sauce into the same pan. Let it bubble and whisk till it turns thick and shiny, which should take about a minute.
05 -
Stir the cooked chicken into the sauce, making sure it's all evenly coated. Heat it up for another minute. Sprinkle with chopped green onions if you'd like and plate over rice or noodles while hot.
