Como fazer Sesame Chicken With Snow Peas

In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon honey.
Add 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch pieces) to the bowl and marinate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator).
Heat 2 teaspoons sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add chicken in batches and cook until browned on all sides, about 3-5 minutes per batch. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
Add 2 teaspoons sesame oil to the skillet. Add 2 chopped green onions (white and light green parts), 1 inch grated ginger, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, ½ teaspoon chili garlic paste, and the remaining 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce.
Pour the sauce into the skillet and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in 1 teaspoon sesame oil.
While the sauce simmers, steam 1 cup snow peas in a steamer basket over boiling water for 2-3 minutes, until crisp-tender.
Return the chicken to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Heat through for 1-2 minutes.
Serve the sesame chicken over 1 ½ cups cooked brown rice, with the snow peas on the side.
Garnish with the reserved green onion (green parts) and sesame seeds.
