Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon cold water optional

Method
 

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the canola oil until it gently shimmers.
  2. Add minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
  3. Pour in honey, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.
  4. For a stickier glaze, whisk in the cornstarch slurry and simmer until the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
  5. Remove from heat, let cool slightly, and serve warm or at room temperature.
