This is an old CL recipe that appeared as an appetizer. I serve it as dinner over rice and think it's fantastic that way.
Ingredients:
2/3 cup honey
2 tablespoons minced ginger
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
4 garlic cloves (minced)
1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (cut into bite sized pieces)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons water
2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds
Directions:
1. Combine first 9 ingredients in a ziplock bag. Seal and shake well. Add chicken, seal, and toss to coat. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
2. Preheat oven to 425. Remove chicken from bag, reserving marinade. Arrange chicken in a single layer on the rack of a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.
3. Bake at 425 for 20 minutes, stirring once. While chicken is cooking, strain marinade hrough sieve into a bowl; discard solids. Place marinade in saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook 3 minutes; skim solids from surface.
4. Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl with a whisk. Add cornstarch mixture to pan, stirring with whisk; cook 1 minute. Remove from heat; pour glaze into a large bowl. Preheat broiler. Add chicken to glaze; toss to coat. Place chicken mixture on a jelly roll pan; broil 5 minutes or until browned. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
