Sesame Cilantro Chicken image

Slightly sweet, super juicy and drizzled with a wonderfully Asian-inspired sauce, this chicken is definitely delicious enough to serve guests. Wild rice would make an easy side. -Brittany Bowen, Flagstaff, Arizona

I would not recommend this recipe. There are much better sesame chicken recipes out there.

This recipe was a disaster. The sauce was too thick and the chicken was overcooked.

I thought the chicken was a little dry. I might try marinating it in the sauce for a few hours next time.

This recipe is a little spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I'll probably cut back on the chili sauce next time.

I didn't have any sesame seeds on hand, so I used peanuts instead. It turned out great!

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, but I really enjoyed this dish. The cilantro flavor wasn't overpowering.
