Original recipe comes from The Recipe Critic.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into one inch cubes

  • 1/4 cup cornstarch

  • 1 tbsp. vegetable oil

  • 1/2 cup hoisin sauce

  • 2 tbsp. Bell-View Soy Sauce

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

  • 1 tsp. Bell-View Chopped Garlic

  • 3 tbsp. rice wine vinegar

  • 1 tsp. sesame oil

  • 1/4 tsp. dry ginger

  • 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper more or less to liking

  • Optional garnish green onions, sesame seeds, additional red pepper flakes

RECIPE:

  1. In a mixing bowl add the chicken and cornstarch. Toss until the chicken is completely coated in the cornstarch. In a medium sized skillet over medium high heat add oil and cook the chicken until the chicken is lightly brown but not cooked throughout. Put in the bottom of a crockpot.

  2. In a small mixing bowl whisk together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, ginger and crushed red pepper. Pour on top of chicken in a crockpot.

  3. Cook on low heat for 3-4 hours or until chicken is cooked throughout. I added a bit of cornstarch to thicken sauce.

  4. Serve over rice and garnish with green onions, sesame seeds and red pepper flakes if desired.
