For the chicken:

2 medium chicken breasts
1 tsp. vegetable oil
1 tsp. fresh ginger, grated
2 garlic cloves, grated
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
2 Tbsp. light soy sauce

For the sauce:

1 Tbsp. fresh ginger, grated
2 garlic cloves, grated
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
1/4 c. apple juice
1/2 c. water
2 Tbsp. ketchup
1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1/3 c. light soy sauce


Directions:

1. For the chicken: Cut the chicken into 1 inch cubes. Toss with all of the ingredients. Grill on high, about 8 minutes total or until no longer pink. I used metal skewers.

2. For the sauce: Combine all ingredients in a saucepan, boil then simmer for 5 minutes.

3. Add cooked chicken to the sauce and let sit for 10 minutes.

If you want a thicker sauce add a cornstarch slurry.

**This makes a lot of sauce, you could easily halve this recipe or add a lot more chicken without doubling the sauce!
