Ingredients

1/4 cup rice vinegar

2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons canola oil
4 chicken thighs boneless and skinless
3 cloves garlic minced
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
toasted sesame seeds optional, to taste, for serving

Directions

In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, the soy sauce, and the honey together until they are blended.
In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the oil and brown the chicken thighs on both sides.
Add the garlic and the ginger to the skillet and cook, while stirring, for 1 minute.
Stir the vinegar mixture into the chicken mixture and bring it to a boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer the chicken mixture, covered, until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 170 degrees F, about 8-10 minutes.
Uncover the skillet and cook until the sauce has slightly thickened, about 1-2 minutes.
Sprinkle the chicken with the sesame seeds.
Serve.
