Sticky Garlic Sesame Chicken
ticky Garlic Sesame Chicken
Seasoned chicken cooked in a skillet with a tangy garlic and honey sauce with sesame seeds and topped with green onions. Served with rice for the perfect meal. We’re celebrating the Chinese New Year with this easy to make dish.
Our family loves chicken as much as we love Asian inspired dishes that pack a lot of flavors. Often times, we love to cook chicken with a delicious sauce and this Asian inspired dish hits the spot. Weeknight dinners can be hectic, but I promise that this dish won’t disappoint. There is something about Asian inspired dishes that are naturally satisfying, enriching and comforting. It’s no wonder why because there are so many sauces that can be made to fit any dish for versatility.
I’ve been using soy sauce to flavor dishes for years. In fact, our family loves to marinate meat with Kikkoman Soy Sauce because it’s a natural browning sauce and a flavor enhancer. We love to use it with steak to give it an extra kick and this chicken is no different. Soy sauce is a versatile ingredient that can be used to cook many different types of cuisines. I like to make Sticky Garlic Sesame Chicken a few times a month as it’s just the perfect dish to prepare for the family.
