Instructions:
Clean the chicken breasts, cut them into cubes, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Heat a pan, add 1 and ½ tbsp olive oil, and sauté the meat until golden brown on all sides. Set it aside in a bowl and on the same pan, add ½ tbsp of oil, heat it up, and sauté finely chopped garlic and ginger. Pour in soy sauce, rice vinegar, add cane sugar, and let the sauce simmer for a bit. Mix cornstarch, dissolved in a bit of water, into the sauce to thicken it. Finally, return the seared meat to the pan and add spring onions cut into larger pieces.
Briefly simmer everything together, season to your likings, and thin with water if needed. Serve with boiled rice, bulgur, sesame seeds, herbs, or vegetables.
