Sesame Chicken
April 03, 2019
Edit
This sesame chicken recipe is a slimmed-down and healthier version of the sesame chicken from PF Chang's and other Chinese restaurants.
Ingredients
1 pound (16 ounces) boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite sized chunks.
3 Tbsp soy sauce
3 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp raw cane sugar
1 tsp honey
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup white, untoasted sesame seeds
liberal pinches of black pepper, ground ginger and ground cinnamon
Directions
I love the sesame chicken you can find at many American Chinese restaurants, such as P.F. Chang's. Sadly, it doesn't love me, so I decided I would make a version that isn't battered and deep fried. This version is baked, so it isn't exactly like the kind from the restaurants. But, I think it's a good substitute for when you're really craving some sesame chicken!
Feel free to add some veggies. Broccoli would be good in this, I'm sure. I'll try it next time I make this. I just didn't have any on hand this time. I need to go shopping soon!
