Sticky Honey & Sesame Chicken

This sticky glazed honey & sesame chicken is delightful and very morish! You'll want to keep going back for more. Perfect served up with rice or some oriental greens, or both. This recipe is a Western favourite found in a lot of takeaway places, particularly in the US. This is my healthier take on the recipe.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine all of the sauce Ingredients together until smooth and set aside.
- 2
Heat a wok up over a high heat and add in some vegetable/cooking oil so it's around 1/2 cm high (enough to shallow fry). Whilst that heats up coat the chicken breast pieces in some cornflour, ensuring it's completely covered.
- 3
Once the oil is hot, add in the chicken and fry them until cooked through, golden brown and the outside crispy. You may need to cook them in 2-3 batches. Once cooked lay them out on some kitchen towel to remove excess oil.
- 4
Drain off the tainted oil from the wok, and just leave enough to coat the wok base thinly. Add the whites of the spring onions and crushed garlic. Fry for a minute until fragrant then add in the sauce. Cook the sauce for a few seconds until it thickens then add a small dash of water to loosen it up. Give it a good stir. Turn down the heat and bring the sauce to a simmer. Allow the sauce to reduce down by half and thicken.
- 5
Add in the chicken pieces. Toss the chicken in the sauce quickly until evenly coated. Sprinkle over some sesame seeds and toss the chicken again to distribute. Sprinkle over more sesame seeds then serve up and garnish with the sliced spring onion greens. Enjoy with your choice of side(s). :)

Rich and Sticky Sesame Tofu Rich and Sticky Sesame Tofu
Readymade sesame tofu from the shop can be hit or miss, and I had some sesame paste left, so I tried making my own.The sesame tofu in the main photo was molded in a plate. The key is to cook the mixture over a low heat, taking the pan off the heat regularly, and to keep on stirring it. Use a spatula or a whisk and make sure to stir it up so that the mixture doesn't stick to the bottom. If the heat is too strong the potato starch will stiffen too fast and separate from the sesame paste, so please be careful. Recipe by Jerucchi cookpad.japan -
Homemade Creamy Sesame Dressing Homemade Creamy Sesame Dressing
I love sesame dressing...but the store-bought version is expensive so I tried making my own!I like this to be on the sweet side, so I've added quite a lot of sugar! Please adjust to your taste.I wanted the texture of the sesame seeds to remain, so I just ground them up halfway.I am not sure how long this will keep. I always store it in a jar (see photo) in the refrigerator, and use it up within a week to 10 days. Recipe by Oshisu cookpad.japan -
Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken
This is a play off of a different recipe that I have, for Baked Hawaiin Teriyaki Chicken. The sauce is basically the same, but with a couple additions. The chicken isn't breaded in this recipe and is cooked entirely on the stovetop. So basically just me wanting the flavors but being too lazy to make my other recipe. This version was very tasty and speedy. I served it with Jasmine rice and steamed broccoli, with some extra sauce drizzled over everything. Sauce inspired by my original recipe, which was adapted from lifeinthelofthouse.com Christina -
Sticky Asian Chicken Sticky Asian Chicken
Author of this recipe is Julia Frey Vikalinka at vikalinka.com.Was looking for a sticky Asian chicken recipe. This one is good, I added 1/2 t. crushed red pepper instead of a teaspn of chile flakes because that's what i had; I didn't have sesame seeds. I had 10 thighs and used them all. Also i didn't use parchment because I forgot. It's not as flavorful as some others I've tried with lots more ingredients. It's a bit more subtle. It was easy though with marinating overnight. Heide -

I love Chinese food particularly orange chicken. Most of this recipe comes from Ree Drummond (Pioneer Woman). We love her cooking. I added vegetables and increased the sauce.

Japanese Honey Mustard Chicken Japanese Honey Mustard Chicken
Honey Mustard Chicken 🍯🍗 can't go wrong! It pairs well with bread 🥖 or rice 🍚. If stored properly in the fridge, it can last about 3 days. Tomorrow, I might make a sandwich with it 🤤! The key to soft and tender chicken is in the first step of the recipe—both the stabbing and the marinating. The mayonnaise does a great job here and doesn't affect the taste.
