Making a sesame chicken recipe at home is an easy way to bring a somewhat boring cut of chicken to life. The ingredients are relatively simple and make for juicy, flavorful chicken you can pair with all your other take-out must-haves. Start with an appetizer of crispy baked wontons<\/a> or potstickers, prep sushi rice<\/a> or lo mein noodles to serve with the chicken and pair with a refreshing side of spinach almond salad<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What is sesame chicken?<\/h2>\n

Sesame chicken is a simple chicken dish made of cubed chicken breasts cooked in a sweet sauce and topped with sesame seeds. It’s most similar to General Tso’s chicken<\/a>. The difference is that General Tso’s has a bit more heat from hoisin sauce and red pepper flakes, and it’s often made with chicken thighs rather than chicken breast.<\/p>\n
