After not cooking for a long time because I was on a diet and eating the same things, I really missed cooking. So, I decided to update a recipe on Cookpad that I hadn't touched in a while. I happened to see this recipe on Mommy Wan Wan's Cookpad account while looking for something to cook that could be topped with sesame seeds (I have a lot of sesame seeds in stock). I recooked it with a little modification.

Steps

1

Mix all the ingredients for the marinade sauce. I used chicken breast and used the bones to make broth.
2

Pour 4-5 tablespoons of the marinade sauce over the cut chicken. Mix well. Let it sit in the fridge for 1-2 hours. Overnight is better. Save the remaining marinade sauce for cooking later.
3

Once the chicken is marinated, coat it with the flour mixture.
4

Fry the chicken until cooked. Remove and drain. Since it was marinated in a sauce with honey, it changes color quickly, so don't leave it frying for too long.
5

For the sauce, heat sesame oil, add garlic and ginger. Sauté until fragrant.
6

Pour in the reserved marinade sauce, add ketchup. Cook until it thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning.
7

Once the taste is right, add the fried chicken. Mix well, turn off the heat.
8

Serve the chicken with sesame sauce topped with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
9

Serve with rice, pasta, or anything you like.
