1- 1/4 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1/2 cups Orange Juice
1/4 cups Honey
1/4 cups Ketchup
2 Tablespoons Rice Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Cornstarch

1
Cut chicken breasts into 1 inch pieces and season with salt and pepper.
2
Heat olive oil in a large saute or fry pan over medium-high heat.
3
Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is browned on the outside and nearly cooked (dont over cook it because the chicken will cook for a few additional minutes with the sauce).
4
While chicken is cooking, in a small bowl, whisk together orange juice, honey, ketchup, rice vinegar, cornstarch, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, orange zest and red pepper flakes.
5
Add the sauce into the pan with the chicken.
6
Let sauce come to a boil and continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until sauce is thickened.
7
Remove from heat and serve immediately over white or brown rice.
8
Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onion.
9
For an even lighter version of this meal, try serving chicken in lettuce cups instead of over rice.
