Cucumber and Chicken Sweet and Sour Stir-fry

Simply stir fry cucumber with inexpensive chicken tenders for an addictive and delicious dish with crunchy cucumber and tasty chicken.
The key is to finish it off at high heat once you add the sauce ingredients. It won't be thick to start with, but the katakuriko on the chicken will gradually dissolve to create a nice smooth sweet and sour sticky sauce. For 2 servings. Recipe by FarmersK
