Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey or maple syrup, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger.
Place chicken in a bowl and pour half of the sauce over it. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and marinade, and cook until chicken is no longer pink.

Pour the remaining sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens.
Serve the Asian-inspired soluble fiber chicken over cooked brown rice or quinoa.
