Follow The Directions
01
Step
2 mins
Prepare the Marinade: In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, rice vinegar, 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil, sugar, and sesame oil. (2 minutes)
02
Step
1 mins
Marinate the Chicken: Add the cubed chicken to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Squeeze out any excess air, seal the bag, and refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (1 minute)
03
Step
5 mins
Prepare the Sauce: In a small saucepan, whisk together water, honey, brown sugar, oyster sauce, the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of soy sauce, mustard powder, and minced garlic. Warm over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugars are fully dissolved and the sauce is well combined. Set aside. (5 minutes)
04
Step
5 mins
Dredge the Chicken: In a shallow bowl, combine potato starch, salt, and pepper. Remove the marinated chicken from the bag, shake off any excess marinade (discard the remaining marinade), and dredge each cube in the potato starch mixture, ensuring all sides are evenly coated. (5 minutes)
05
Step
10 mins
Cook the Chicken: Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the dredged chicken and fry on all sides until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side. (10 minutes)
06
Step
2 mins
Glaze and Serve: Pour the prepared sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet, tossing to coat every piece evenly. Allow the sauce to thicken slightly, then sprinkle generously with toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately and enjoy! (2 minutes)
