In a bowl, toss the chicken cubes with cornstarch, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
While the chicken cooks, whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, sriracha (if using), minced garlic, and grated ginger in a small bowl.
1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon ketchup, 1 teaspoon sriracha, 1 clove garlic, 1/2 teaspoon ginger
Pour the sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken evenly.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired. Serve immediately over rice or noodles.
