    I made these for dinner last night. My wife really liked it aside from saying it was a little salty. I did use the lite soy sauce (50% less sodium). I think for my taste I might reduce the tomato paste as there was something that hit my tongue weird. With that said; I will make this again as it was good.

    I served this over brown rice as my wife isn't a quinoa fan (I am though!).

    1lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1″ chunks
    2 tbsp + 1 tsp cornstarch, divided

    1 tsp chili oil (or sesame oil)
    1 tsp honey
    2 tbsp tomato paste
    scallions, sliced

    optional: 1 tbsp dried thai chilies

    Step by Step Instructions:

    5. In a medium saucepan, combine garlic, ginger and chili oil, saute for 2 minutes
    6. Add soy sauce, broth, vinegar, honey, tomato paste and hoisin sauce
    7. Simmer mixture on medium heat for 4-5 minutes
