1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
2 Tbs vegetable oil
6 cloves garlic finely diced

Distribute the diced onion in a well-oiled 10 inch Dutch oven. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Arrange the chicken breasts on top of the onions.
In a medium bowl combine the honey, soy sauce, ketchup vegetable oil and garlic and red pepper flakes. Give it all a good mix. Pour it over the chicken.
Bake for one hour using 7 coals beneath and 14 coals on top to get 350 degrees in your 10 inch Dutch oven.
Swap out your coals after 45 minutes.
After one hour, lift the lid and remove the chicken breasts. Combine the cornstarch and water and give it a good mix. Add the cornstarch and water to the pot and give it a good mix.
Cut the chicken breasts into bite size pieces and return it to the pot. Give it all a good mix.
Remove the coals from the lid and place them below pot. Allow the pot to simmer with the lid off for about 15 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Serve over hot cooked rice. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and enjoy.
