Steps

1. In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, soy sauce, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil.
2. Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over it. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry and set aside.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Remove chicken from marinade and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked.
5. Pour the remaining marinade into the skillet and bring to a simmer.
6. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
7. Return the chicken to the skillet and coat with the sauce.
8. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced spring onion if desired. Serve immediately.
