4 servings

For the chicken

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1 ½-inch pieces
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper

For the sauce

Chef's tip
Use the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey.
2 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
Chef's tip
Swap it in for an equal amount of the oil or butter the recipe cooks with - do not add it on top of the existing fat.

¼ tsp red pepper flakes
¼ cup water

For the slurry

2 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp cold water

For serving

2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
3 green onions, thinly sliced
