Ingredients

• 2 pounds boneless chicken breasts; cut into bite-size pieces
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves; crushed & chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon ginger
• 3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/4 cup apple juice
• 1/3 cup light brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/3 cup soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce, optional to kick up the heat
• Salt, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Heat a large skillet heat oil over medium-high heat. Gently season the chicken with salt to your taste and add chicken pieces. Turn and cook for 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked on all the sides. Remove the chicken and add the remaining ingredients: garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, apple juice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, water, soy sauce and cornstarch. Stir together over the heat until it is well combined and cornstarch and sugar have dissolved. Add the chicken back in and bring to a rolling boil. Reduce heat to low to medium-low and simmer, uncovered for 20 minutes.
