Step 1
Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, pear, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a bowl to make the marinade.
Step 2
Slice chicken breasts horizontally to create thinner, more uniform pieces about 0.25 inches thick.
Step 3
Place chicken in a large shallow dish and pour marinade over. Toss to coat evenly. Marinate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
Step 4
Preheat a 12-inch cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until very hot.
Step 5
Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip off. Discard remaining marinade.
Step 6
Cook chicken in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until caramelized and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F).
Step 7
Transfer cooked chicken to a serving plate and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
