Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce

1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon Sriracha
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Combine broth, sesame oil, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, cornstarch, garlic, and Sriracha for sauce in a medium saucepan. Whisk until cornstarch is dissolved. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a different method of cooking the chicken, such as pan-frying or baking.
