Japanese-Style Sesame Chicken

Recipe #186388 | 25 min | 5 min prep | add private note

By: Chefcrystal

I say this is Japanese-style because it is similar to the sesame chicken served at a Japanese restaurant in my hometown. Of course they set it on fire and all of that stuff, so it isn't quite as good, but it is close enough for home. My family loves this. I serve it with Copycat Kobe Style Fried Rice With " Shrimp Sauce".

SERVES 2 -3 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Use the sesame oil to coat a wok or nonstick pan.
  2. 2
    Add chicken and cook over low heat until almost cooked through.
  3. 3
    Mix the ginger, onion powder, garlic powder, and sesame seeds in a small bowl.
  4. 4
    Sprinkle over chicken and saute over medium-high heat.
  5. 5
    Turn heat to high and add soy sauce, sautéing until fully incorporated and the chicken is slightly seared.
  6. 6
    Serve immediately.

The only complaint we have about this chicken is the saltiness, which is partially my fault. I didn't have onion powder so I subbed onion salt. Won't make that mistake again! Other than that, this is the most wonderful moist, flavorful chicken! We think this was better than what we get at the local restaurant! Thank you so much for posting this! Definately going to make it into regular rotation!

    yup, if you follow the recipe, this is what you get in a Japanese Steak House. Make sure you do the high heat to cook off all of the liquids and it will start to sear the meat, that is if you want the style Chefcrystal is going for.

    Delicious and easy! I made this a few weeks ago and I'm making it tonight, I used fresh garlic instead garlic powder (3 cloves substitute 1/2 tsp of garlic powder) and plan to substitute the ground ginger for fresh ginger tonight. I wanted extra sauce so I used 3 tbsp of soy instead of 2, however, I'll be using reduced sodium soy sauce tonight because I felt it was a little too salty for my taste the last time. I also plan to chop some green onions for garnish for tonight's meal. All in all a wonderful asian style dish.
