• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp water
• Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
• Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together tamari, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Set aside.
2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
4. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through.
5. Add grated ginger and minced garlic to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant.

Tips & Variations:

• For extra vegetables, add broccoli florets, bell peppers, or snow peas to the skillet along with the chicken.
