    Recipe Introduction


    servings 4
    points 4

    List of Ingredients




    2 Tbsp sesame seeds, raw
    1 Tbsp water
    1 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
    1 Tbsp maple syrup
    1 Tbsp dry sherry
    1 tsp ginger root, fresh, minced
    1/2 tsp five-spice powder
    2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
    1/2 tsp table salt
    1/4 tsp black pepper
    1 pound uncooked boneless, skinless chicken breast(s), cut into 2-inch pieces
    2 tsp peanut oil

    Recipe



    Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add sesame seeds and cook until lightly toasted, shaking the pan frequently, about 2 to 3 minutes; transfer seeds to a shallow dish and set aside.

    Whisk water, soy sauce, maple syrup, sherry, ginger and five-spice powder together in a small bowl; set aside.
    Combine flour, salt and pepper in a shallow dish; add chicken and turn to coat. Shake chicken pieces to remove excess flour.

    Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sauté until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add soy sauce mixture to chicken and cook until sauce thickens and is almost evaporated, about 2 to 3 minutes.

    Dip chicken pieces in toasted sesame seeds and serve, drizzled with any additional soy sauce mixture. Yields about 4 strips per serving.
