Step 5
Take the diced chicken breast and dip each piece in the egg, then dip it in the flour, then coat it in the cornstarch. Repeat for all chicken pieces.
Step 6
Once all pieces are coated, put a medium saucepan on medium heat. Add in the oil.
Step 7
Once the pan is hot, add in the chicken. be careful not to overcrowd the pan. You may have to cook in batches. Cook the chicken until it reaches an internal temp of 165F. This should take 5-10 minutes.
Step 8
Once the chicken is done cooking, take the pan off the heat. I used a paper towel to carefully take the excess oil out of the pan. Then, put the pan on low heat and add the chicken back in. Add in the sauce, toss to coat and cook for a few minutes until the sauce thickens a bit.
Step 9
Serve over rice. Top with optional green onion and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
