Steps:

  • Heat your grill to medium-high

  • Stir together the remaining 3 tablespoons of ancho powder with the coriander, cumin, and paprika in a small bowl.

Grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat of the grill to medium, turn the wings over, and close the lid of the grill. Continue grilling until just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes longer, brushing with the small bowl of glaze every few minutes and turning once during the last 10 minutes of cooking.

1 c cornstarch
1-2 Tbsp vegetable oil
FOR THE SAUCE:
1/4 c honey
2 Tbsp brown sugar
1 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 1/2 Tbsp sesame oil
2 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce
GARNISH:
toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • 2. Lightly salt and pepper the cubed chicken. Put the cornstarch into a gallon zip top bag. Dump chicken in with the cornstarch. Seal the bag and shake vigorously to ensure that the chicken is well coated. Dump chicken and cornstarch into a colander over garbage can, shake excess cornstarch off the chicken.
  • 3. Heat 1 TB of the oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Working in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan, cook the chicken until browned on all sides. Place cooked chicken on a large, rectangular, parchment paper-lined baking pan.
  • 4. In a small/medium bowl, whisk all ingredients for sauce together until well blended. Pour sauce over chicken and stir to make sure every piece is coated.
  • 5. Bake for 15 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is completely cooked. While chicken is in the oven, stir it every 5-10 minutes to make sure chicken is completely coated with sauce.
  • 6. Serve chicken over jasmine rice and garnish with sesame seeds.

Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons ginger wine (or dry sherry)
1 tablespoon cornflour (cornstarch)
8 chicken thighs, cut into large pieces
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup green onion, sliced
2 teaspoons honey
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • In a glass bowl mix together soy sauce, wine and cornflour. Cut up chicken, if not already done, and add to the bowl. Stir together well. Let this marinade a few minutes.
  • Heat up frying pan or wok. Add peanut oil, sesame oil, crushed garlic and grated ginger. Fry breifly.
  • Drain chicken pieces , reserving the liquid, and add them to the pan a few at a time. Do this in batches so that they brown nicely.
  • When all of the chicken has been fried off, add the chicken pices back to the pan with the reserved marinade and chicken stock. Cook until thickened. Stir in honey. Taste to see if it is sweet enough. Add more honey if it needs it.
  • Remove from heat. Stir in green onions. Sprinkle over sesame seeds as a garnish. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish. Look for chicken that is plump and pink, with no signs of bruising or discoloration. Use fresh, crisp vegetables and herbs.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in the sesame-honey sauce for at least 30 minutes will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. You can also marinate the chicken overnight for even more flavor.
  • Use a hot pan: When you're cooking the chicken, make sure the pan is hot enough so that the chicken sears and browns quickly. This will help to lock in the flavor and prevent the chicken from drying out.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to steam rather than brown.
  • Use a meat thermometer: To make sure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve immediately: Sesame-honey chicken is best served immediately after it's cooked. This will ensure that the chicken is hot and crispy, and the sauce is still warm and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Sesame-honey chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The combination of sweet and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips, you can make sesame-honey chicken that is restaurant-quality.
