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 dish serves 1, but can easily be modified to serve more. Some Soba noodles are gluten-free (check package). They are made from buckwheat and metabolize much more slowly than most carbohydrates, which makes them ideal for diabetics and health-conscious individuals. You can pick them up at your local japanese market or health food store. If you don't have any chicken leftovers on hand, Marinate chicken breast tenderloins or sliced breasts in some sesame oil, chopped up garlic, sake or rice vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper for 4-24 hours. Cook in nonstick skillet.. adding a bit of soy sauce and sake/wine halfway through the cooking. This sauce can be used on any noodles with just about any vegetables you like.

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
