• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Directions

• In a medium bowl, stir in the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, sesame oil, and cornstarch until the cornstarch is dissolved. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Let stand at room temperature for about 10 minutes.

Cook for about 3 or 4 minutes until they are slightly softened. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger and continue stirring for about 1 minute. Add the chicken and continue stirring the chicken for about 4 or 5 minutes or until it is no longer pink.
• Pour in the sauce and mix to coat the chicken and vegetables. Stir in the peanuts and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate, sprinkle the green onions on top, and serve over white rice.
