Servings 4

Ingredients

  • ½-1 Tbsp oil (avocado or vegetable)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (chopped into small pieces)
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar

Optional:

  • sesame seeds for garnish
  • cooked rice

Instructions

  • Heat both oils over high heat in a large sauté pan. Add chicken in a single layer and brown for 2-3 minutes without stirring. Check a piece to see if it is properly browned. If so, stir, making sure chicken flips to cook the other side. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until chicken is cooked through, (no longer pink in the center, 165º F if taken with an instant thermometer)
  • Stir in the soy sauce and brown sugar. Let it bubble up, then reduce the heat to medium.
  • Continue to stir for a minute until the sugar is fully incorporated and the sauce thickens a bit. Serve over cooked rice and garnish with sesame seeds. Yum!
