Steps:
- In a storage bag or storage container, add the Chili Sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and 1 tsp of sesame seeds (leave some for garnish). Mix together, then add the raw chicken breasts.
- You can marinade the chicken in the sauce for 1 hour up to 8 hours.
- Preheat a skillet on high and add Olive Oil. Remove the marinated chicken breasts from the marinade using tongs, saving the marinade to cook. Add the chicken breasts to the hot skillet. Sear for 2-3 minutes until the the chicken starts to char. Because of the sugar in the sauce, you need to be careful that the chicken doesn't burn. It's ok to get a little char as that will be lots of flavor.
- Flip the Chicken and sear for another 2-3 minutes. Then add 1/4 cup water and the remaining marinade. Cover the skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 F degrees or the chicken feels firm with a little give.
- Uncover, turn off the heat and move the skillet off the hot burner. Let rest for a few minutes. Then remove the chicken and slice it on a bias in 3/4 inch slices. This should give you about 5-6 slices.
- Serve with rice or veggies, spoon some of the sauce on top or serve it on the side. Then garnish with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro leaves.

CHINESE STYLE SESAME SAUCE
This is the SAUCE for Chinese restaurant style sesame chicken and broccoli. This sauce can be poured over fried chicken, or used as a dipping sauce for fried chicken. I emphasize not using too much vinegar because it turns into a sweet-n-sour type sauce. But you do need a 'touch' of vinegar.

Steps:
- Toss the chicken in the soy sauce, sesame oil and ginger. Thread each thigh on two long metal skewers, so that each skewer pierces one side of the thigh. Keep threading the chicken, making sure it's packed onto the skewers tightly. Chill until you're ready to cook. Mix the ingredients for the glaze.
- Heat the BBQ. If using a coal BBQ, wait for the coals to turn ashen before you start cooking. Cook the kebab for 5-8 mins on each side (depending on the heat). Once nicely charred but not fully cooked through, start painting on the glaze. The honey will catch if cooked for too long - the key to nice sticky chicken is applying the glaze in layers, turning the kebab often.
- Once the glaze has been used up and the chicken is cooked through (it'll take about 20 mins in total), transfer to a plate and leave to cool for 5 mins before serving scattered with spring onions.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts for the best flavor and juiciness.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and garlic powder for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight) will help to infuse it with flavor.
- Cook the chicken over indirect heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken: The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Make the sesame chili sauce while the chicken is cooking: This will give the sauce time to develop its flavor.
- Serve the chicken with the sesame chili sauce and your favorite sides: Rice, noodles, or vegetables are all great options.
Conclusion:
This BBQ chicken with sesame chili sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a backyard barbecue. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the sauce is sweet, savory, and slightly spicy. Serve it with your favorite sides for a complete meal that everyone will love.
