Crispy Sesame Chicken
This Crispy Sesame Chicken recipe sure beats the one we order in the restaurant. Its crispy and sweet-savory sesame flavor is very addictive, in a good way!
Ingredients:
Directions:
Place the eggs in a separate bowl, whisk with salt and pepper.
In another bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
In a large frying pan, heat the oil on medium-high.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture and then into the flour.
Add the chicken into the pan, do not overcrowd. Cook one side then flip to the other side, cook until golden brown and crispy, roughly around 5 to 7 minutes. Depending on how large your pan, you might do 2 to 3 batches. Set aside the cooked crispy fried chicken.
While the chicken is cooking, combine all the sauce ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside.
After cooking all the chicken, remove all the extra oil from the pan, and then quickly clean with paper towel or clean kitchen towel.
Add the sauce mixture into the pan, let it boil for a minute or two or until bubbly. Stirring occasionally.
Add the cooked crispy chicken and stir for a minute to incorporate the sauce.
Top with sesame seeds and green onions.
