Ingredients 1 pound (16 ounces) boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite sized chunks. 3 Tbsp soy sauce3 Tbsp olive oil2 Tbsp raw cane sugar 1 tsp honey1/2 tsp garlic powder1/4 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! Add chicken, mix together well so the chicken is thoroughly coated in the marinade, cover and let it sit in the fridge for 2 hours or so. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange chicken on a cookie sheet, and pour liquid on top of it. Bake in oven for 5 minutes, flip chicken pieces with a spatula, and bake for another 5 minutes, or until done. Serve with brown rice (not included in the Nutritional Info, because everybody likes different amounts of rice, or some might even not want rice at all.) Makes 4 4-oz servings.

this was EXCELLENT!!!! I did as others suggested, tossed chicken in flour then stir fried in 1 tbsp. hot oil. Brought sauce to boil in separate pot then added 1tsp cornstarch/1tsp water to thicken, added to cooked chicken. Used only 1 tbsp oil in sauce 1/2 toasted sesame/1/2 olive oil. YUM!! THANX! - 12/2/10
For me a big part of seasme chicken is the breading, not just the sauce I think it might be better if you coated the chicken pieces in whole whaet flour and then fried with the olive oil and made the sauce seperate, that would get a truer to seasme chicken texture, and wouldn't add too many cals - 11/3/09
Made some minor changes but this turned out AWESOME! I used Lesser Sodium Soy Sauce, decreased OliveOil to 1 tbsp, used brown sugar, 1/8 c. sesame seeds, juice from small, freshly sqzed orange. To cut total time, sauteed chicken in Olv.Oil then added other ingr. and simmered to reduce and thicken. - 1/9/11
