Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

10 ounces raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast, cut into nuggets
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute
1/4 cup whole-wheat flour
1/4 cup fat-free chicken broth
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons sugar-free pancake syrup
2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon ketchup
1/2 tablespoon reduced-sodium or lite soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions
Red pepper flakes, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and set it aside. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and place in a bowl with egg substitute. Toss to coat and set aside. Put flour in another bowl. One at a time, use a fork or tongs to transfer chicken "nuggets" to the flour bowl, allowing excess egg substitute to drain back into the egg bowl. Thoroughly coat the chicken with flour and then transfer to the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining flour and chicken. Bake the chicken in the oven until fully cooked, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, to make the sauce, combine broth with cornstarch in a nonstick skillet and whisk to dissolve. Set stove to medium-low heat. Add syrup, vinegar, ketchup, soy sauce, sesame oil, and garlic. Mix well. Stirring often, cook until it's thick enough to coat a spoon, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Add chicken and toss to coat. Plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions. If you like, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes. Eat up!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 scallions (green/spring onions), (white and light green parts only)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon light (regular) soy sauce ((preferably low-sodium))
1 tablespoon Chinkiang or black Chinese vinegar
3 tablespoons well-blended Chinese sesame paste
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons chili oil with chili flakes ((homemade recipe follows))
½ to 1 teaspoon ground Sichuan pepper
1 pound cooked chicken breast meat, (cooled)
1 ½ teaspoons toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Cut the scallions into sections and then slice these lengthwise into thin slivers. Put them into a bowl of cold water to refresh.
  • Whisk the sugar and salt in the soy sauce and vinegar until dissolved. Gradually whisk in the sesame paste to make a smooth sauce. Add the sesame oil, chili oil, and ground Sichuan pepper and mix well. You should yield about ½ cup of strange flavor sauce.
  • Cut the chicken into slivers about ½ inch wide (if you want to be really authentic, hit it a few times with a rolling pin or wooden dowel to loosen the fibers and then tear the flesh into shreds by hand).
  • Shortly before serving, drain the scallions and pile them neatly in the center of your serving dish. Lay the chicken slivers on top of them, then pour the prepared sauce over the top. Finally, sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your sesame chicken will taste. If possible, buy your ingredients from a local market or farm.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken until it's cooked through: Make sure you cook the chicken until it's cooked through. This will help to ensure that it's safe to eat.
  • Use a good quality sesame oil: The sesame oil is one of the key ingredients in this dish, so make sure you use a good quality oil. Look for an oil that's dark and nutty in flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Sesame chicken is best served immediately after it's cooked. This will help to ensure that the chicken stays crispy and the sauce stays flavorful.

Conclusion:

This strange flavored sesame chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is crispy and flavorful, and the sauce is sweet, savory, and slightly tangy. Serve it with rice or noodles, and you've got a meal that the whole family will love.
