Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces, put them in a bowl with the marinade ingredients, massage gently, cover and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  2. Finely chop the garlic. Thinly slice the green onions, keeping the whites and greens separate.
  3. Combine all the sauce ingredients in a small container and mix well. Set aside.
  4. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large wok or pan over high heat. Add the marinated chicken in a single layer and sear for 1 minute, until the bottom is golden brown. Flip and stir-fry for another 3 to 4 minutes, until cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  5. In the same wok, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and the white parts of the green onions and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes, until the garlic starts to turn golden.
  6. Stir the sauce briefly, pour it in and stir for 30 seconds, until it thickens and looks shiny.
  7. Return the chicken to the wok and toss until evenly coated.
  8. Garnish with the green onion greens and toasted sesame seeds.
