Take-Out Style Sesame Chicken





Ingredients:
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1 inch cubes)
3 Cups Fresh Broccoli
1 Medium Onion

BATTER:
½ cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg (beaten)
½ cup water (or as much as needed to make batter smooth)
3 tablespoons cornstarch
salt (to taste)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil


Step 1: Heat oil in a deep fryer to 325 degrees. In large bowl combine all of the batter ingredients and mix thoroughly. The batter should be thick enough to coat the chicken but thin enough to flow around the pieces. Set aside.



Step 2: Dip chicken pieces  into the batter to coat evenly (one by one). Deep fry the chicken in batches in your deep fryer for about 10 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. (or you can fry in hot oil at about 325 degrees in your wok for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown) 


SAUCE:
1/4 Cup Honey
1 Cup Ketchup
2 Tbs Rice Vinegar
1/4 Cup Dijon Mustard
1 Tbs Sesame Oil
1 tsp White Pepper
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Sesame Seeds




Step 3: In a bowl whisk together ketchup, honey, mustard, vinegar, sesame oil, pepper, garlic and sesame seeds. Pour into a pan and cook until the sauce is thickened and bubbly.  Add the broccoli and onions to lightly cook. 
Toss in the fried chicken pieces and serve!
