INGREDIENTS

4 tsp oil, divided
1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken, cut into 1 inch cubes
2 small shallots or 1 small red onion, sliced
1 bell pepper, sliced (any color)
2 stalks celery, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp ginger, grated or minced
1 Tbsp soy sauce 
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 1/2 tsp Milford Spice Company’s DiDad’s Passion for Pepper
1 Tbsp honey 
1 Tbsp rice vinegar
1 1/2 tsp cornstarch, divided

DIRECTIONS

• In a small bowl, combine the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch and a small pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of oil to the skillet when it's hot along with the chicken. Allow the chicken to cook all the way through, about 4-6 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate.

• In a small measuring cup, combine the soy sauce, Milford Spice Company’s DiDad’s Passion for Pepper, honey, rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of water; stir until the cornstarch dissolves, set aside. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil in the skillet. Add the onions, pepper, and celery. Sauté everything for 3-5 minutes or until the veggies brighten in color and start to cook down a little. Add the ginger and garlic during the last minute of cooking.

• Add the chicken back to the skillet and drizzle in the prepared sauce, and stir to combine. The sauce will thicken fairly quickly, about 20 seconds or so. Serve on a bed of white or brown rice.
