Bourbon Chicken

Recipe from: Blog Chef
I added the green beans to the recipe.

Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts (cut into 1" pieces)
1 lb fresh green beans
2 tbsp oil (separated)
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 garlic clove (minced)
1 tbsp ginger (minced)

Sauce:
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup apple juice
1/3 cup light brown sugar
2 tbsp ketchup
1 tbsp cider vinegar
1/4 - 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, and lightly dust with cornstarch. Heat oil in your wok and fry chicken bits in batches until lightly browned. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

Steam green beans. In a bowl combine all sauce ingredients. Heat oil in skillet and saute garlic and ginger. Pour sauce into skillet and bring to a boil. Add chicken bits back to the pan, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Add steamed green beans and coat with sauce. Serve over rice.
