Better Than Takeout Sesame Chicken Recipes

BETTER THAN TAKE OUT SESAME CHICKEN

Better Than Take Out Sesame Chicken image

If you like the sesame chicken in Chinese restaurants, you'll really like this dish. It's much healthier because it's baked and not fried. I serve with Pbrr Ranch's Chinese Take-out Fried Rice, recipe number 19345.

Time 55m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/8 cup sesame seeds
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup soy sauce (I use low sodium or tamari)
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
4 whole green onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

Cut chicken in about 1-inch chunks.
In a small skillet, combine sesame seed and vegetable oil: cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until seeds are golden about 2 minutes.
Let cool a for a few minutes.
Stir in soy sauce, sugar, ginger, pepper, garlic and half of the green onions.
Mix in the chicken and marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Arrange chicken with marinade in a single layer in a 7" x 5" baking pan.
Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden and cooked through.
Serve over steamed or fried rice.
Garnish with remaining green onions.
