Directions: |
Directions:Toast 2 Tbsp sesame seeds on baking sheet in oven on 325° for about 12-15 minutes, until brown and fragrant. Cool.
Mix all together in a small pot and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cover, turn down heat to low, and keep warm while you are deep-frying the chicken.
To deep fry the chicken, heat 3 ½ c vegetable or peanut oil until hot. Add the marinated chicken pieces a few at a time, turning quickly to prevent sticking to pan. Fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remainder of the chicken.
Just before you are finished deep-frying, bring the sauce back up to a boil. Place the chicken on a large platter and pour the sauce over. Sprinkle with a few sesame seeds. Serve the Sesame Chicken with rice.
