Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 2 tablespoons peeled and finely grated fresh ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon red chile flakes
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • 1/4 teaspoon grated lime zest
  • 1 large scallion (white and green part), thinly sliced

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the ginger and red chile flakes and cook until the ginger is soft, about 2 minutes. Increase the heat to high, add the orange juice, brown sugar, soy sauce and lime juice and cook until the mixture is reduced by about one-quarter, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes.

Remove from the heat, stir in the rice vinegar and orange and limes zests and let cool to room temperature. Add the green onions and sesame seeds just before serving.
