I serve the chicken with, or over, rice and add some stir-fried vegetables on the side.

This Sesame Chicken can also be a delicious topping to a salad. You can create an Asian restaurant-style salad simply by adding this chicken!



Note: To toast sesame seeds, place in a baking dish or pie pan in a 300 degree F oven for about 5-6 minutes. You must keep a close eye on the seeds so as not to burn.
