Skillet Sesame Chicken Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

When you're craving chinese food, you don't have to order takeout. This sesame chicken is easy to make and it's just as quick as having it deliveredonly far fresher. A little bit salty, a little bit sweet, and a touch nutty, the chicken is cooked to a golden brown finish. Just add broccoli and rice, and dinner is served in 30 minutes, start-to-finish. The beauty of this dish is that it takes only simple ingredients that are easy to stock. While the typical restaurant version is deep fried, your skillet sesame chicken will use less oil. Sesame oil has a similar nutritional content to olive oil. Both are low in saturated fat and high in monounsaturated fat. Sesame oil is higher in beneficial omega-3 fatty acids than olive oil. Sesame seeds provide beneficial fiber and minerals.
