Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce:
1 Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce:

Remove the honey from the refrigerator to bring to room temperature. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut the green beans into 1-inch pieces. Cut off and discard the stems of the peppers; remove the cores, then thinly slice lengthwise. Cut out and discard the core of the cabbage; thinly slice the leaves. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. In a bowl, whisk together the ketchup, honey (kneading the packet before opening), soy sauce, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of water. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. 

2 Coat & cook the chicken:

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels; place in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add half the cornstarch (you will have extra) and toss to coat. In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat half the sesame oil on medium-high until hot. Add the coated chicken in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Leaving any browned bits (or fond) in the pan, transfer to a plate. 

Coat & cook the chicken:
Cook the vegetables:
3 Cook the vegetables:

To the pan of reserved fond, add the remaining sesame oil; heat on medium-high until hot. Add the green bean pieces. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add the sliced peppers and cabbage and chopped garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes, or until softened. 

4 Finish & serve your dish:

To the pan, add the cooked chicken and sauce (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until combined and the sauce is slightly thickened. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished chicken, vegetables, and sauce garnished with the furikake. Enjoy!
