Ingredients:

* 1 lb (450g) chicken thighs or breast, cut into strips
* Salt and pepper
* 1 tbsp oil (vegetable or olive oil)

For the Glaze:

* 1/4 cup soy sauce
* 1/4 cup honey or brown sugar
* 2 tbsp rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 tsp ginger, grated
* 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water (for thickening)

Steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken:
Season the chicken strips with salt and pepper.

2. Sear the Chicken:
Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook until browned on both sides and nearly cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

3. Make the Glaze:
In the same pan, add soy sauce, honey, vinegar, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until it starts to thicken slightly.

4. Thicken the Sauce:
Add the cornstarch slurry (cornstarch mixed with water) to the sauce, stirring continuously until it thickens to a glaze-like consistency.

5. Combine and Caramelize:
Return the chicken to the pan and toss in the glaze. Continue cooking for a few minutes, coating the chicken until it’s glossy and caramelized.

6. Sprinkle with dried herbs if desired and serve
