Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Thinly slice the onions.
- Grate the fresh ginger root.
- Measure out all the other ingredients and set them aside.
2. Cook the Chicken:
- Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
3. Cook the Onions:
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onions.
- Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes or until the onions are soft and golden brown.
4. Make the Sauce:
- To the onions in the skillet, add the grated fresh ginger root, chicken broth, soy sauce, ground ginger, and vinegar.
- Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.
5. Glaze with Honey:
- Add the honey to the skillet and stir to combine. Let the sauce simmer for another 3-4 minutes or until it starts to thicken slightly.
6. Combine and Cook:
- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, turning them to coat in the sauce.
- Let everything simmer together for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
7. Serve:
- Place each chicken breast on a serving plate.
- Spoon the honey-glazed onions and sauce over the chicken.
8. Garnish and Finish:
- Sprinkle with finely chopped coriander leaves as a garnish.

Tips:

- Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness to ensure they cook evenly.

- Marinate the chicken in soy sauce and ginger for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.

- Use a cast-iron skillet for a nice sear on the chicken breasts.
