Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Chicken Breast, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 12 oz Asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 3 tablespoons Soy Sauce (or gluten-free)
- 2 tablespoons Mirin
- 0.5 tablespoon Honey
- 0.5 tablespoon Fresh Grated Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Canola or Grapeseed Oil divided
- 4 cloves Garlic, chopped
- Kosher salt to taste
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, mirin, honey, ginger, and cornstarch. Set aside.
- Lightly season chicken with salt.
- Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large non-stick wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus and cook until tender-crisp, about 6-7 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute until golden. Remove asparagus and garlic from wok and set aside.
- Increase heat to high. Add 1 teaspoon oil and half of the chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside. Repeat with remaining oil and chicken.
- Place everything back into the wok. Pour sauce over and cook, stirring 30-60 seconds, until sauce thickens slightly.
