Directions: |
Directions:Marinate chicken overnight or at least 1 hour.
Combine flour and sesame seeds and roll chicken in mixture—or throw it all in a big baggie and shake it together. Fry chicken in oil. Remove chicken. Deglaze skillet with 3 cup of strained marinade--or use another pan. Cook carrots alone for a while, add the cauliflower and broccoli. Then add the snow peas and chestnuts and cook just enough to heat. You can add a bottled sauce if there’s one you like—or you can add a little of the marinade. Otherwise, just plain veggies are good, too. Add chicken and toss well.
For gravy, you can add a little cornstarch to the marinade—be sure you add it to the COLD marinade. Cook and stir until thick. |

Notes: This is really a two person job, but you can cook the chicken ahead and keep in warm in a 200 degree oven.
