    List of Ingredients




    1 whole chicken, cut up (or 4 leg quarters or 4-6 breasts)
    1 t. oil
    1/3 c. soy sauce
    1/3 c. brown sugar
    1/2 c. water
    1 T. ketchup
    1/4 c. dry sherry or apple juice
    1/2 to 3/4 t. crushed dried red pepper
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    2 green onions, chopped
    1 T. cornstarch dissolved in 2 T. cold water
    2 t. sesame seeds, toasted

    Recipe



    Heat oil in Dutch oven or wok, browning chicken on all sides.

    Meanwhile, mix in bowl: soy sauce, brown sugar, water, ketchup, sherry, red pepper, garlic and onion. Pour over chicken. Cover and cook 40 mins., turning chicken occasionally to get all sides to cook in sauce.

    Remove chicken to platter and thicken sauce with cornstarch and water; stirring constantly.

    Sprinkle chicken with sesame seeds and serve with hot cooked rice and the sauce.

    * I drizzled chicken with sesame oil before serving.
