Served this as a late afternoon Sunday brunch for just the four of us. It was a big hit This is a brilliant way to use some of that leftover chicken you had from your last chicken dinner. It is easy to make, and tastes great. Serve with some egg-fried rice and you have the perfect evening meal. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

You will need a medium-size saucepan, or a skillet with high sides, to make this recipe.

The Chicken Use any part of the chicken you want… Light meat, dark meat, or a combination of both. I am using leftover chicken; however, if you do not have any, just cook up a breast or thigh, and there you go.

Dice or shred the chicken.

Mix together all of the sauce ingredients.

Add to a saucepan and slowly bring to a simmer.
Step 8

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch or arrowroot powder to make a slurry.
Step 9

Add the slurry to the sauce and simmer while stirring until thickened.
Step 10

Add the chicken.
Step 11

Mix until all pieces are coated with the sauce and warmed through.
Step 12
