Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast or thighs
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
  • 1 tablespoon water

  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking dish with parchment or foil. Place the chicken in the baking dish and set aside.
