Start preparing the soy sauce marinated chicken by placing the chicken breast in a bowl.
Add the soy sauce, rice vinegar, ground ginger, and cornstarch.
Finish with a clove of grated or crushed garlic using a garlic press.
Mix well until all the ingredients are combined and the chicken is completely covered.
Let marinate covered in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Heat some extra virgin olive oil in a pan (even better if you can find sesame oil). Pour in the marinated chicken and cook for 5 minutes: a nice crust should form on the meat.
Turn the chicken and cook for another 5 minutes.
After cooking, you can add some white sesame seeds and the green part of a scallion to the chicken.
Serve the soy sauce marinated chicken immediately at the table.
