Tips:

  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will ensure that the chicken has enough space to cook evenly.
  • Make sure the chicken is cut into bite-sized pieces: This will help it to cook quickly and evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too much chicken to the pan, it will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat: This will help it to get a nice crispy coating.
  • Don't stir the chicken too often: Stirring the chicken too often will prevent it from getting a crispy coating.
  • Add the sauce to the pan once the chicken is cooked: This will help to prevent the sauce from burning.
  • Serve the chicken immediately: Sesame chicken is best served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Sweet and sticky sesame chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce is sweet, sticky, and flavorful. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
