I really enjoyed this dish! I used 1.75 lbs of chicken breasts and the flour mixture covered the pieces just fine. I cooked frozen broccoli in the microwave and threw that in at the end to mix with the chicken and coat with the sesame sauce. I think it would also be yummy with a few cashews, too. I served it with Jasmine rice, and it was a nice, balanced, filling meal.

WOW!! This was delish & super quick! I altered the ingredients to what I had on hand and made it for 6 servings. I used plain chicken cooked in the olive oil, the added water chesnuts, celery ans julienne'd baby carrots. Added them to the frying chicken and then added the sauce. Cooked for 5 mins & served over brown rice! Fast & easy! I can't wait for my hubby to try when he gets home! I am excited to try it again soon and mix up the veggies w/the broccoli and possibly some mushrooms!!

Excellent! I subbed boneless thighs for the breast, as were prefer the dark meat. Great flavors. And so easy! It didn't say what to do with the sesame seeds, so I just sprinkled them on top before serving, along with a chopped green onion. Served with steamed rice and recipe #458703 . Made for Best of 2011 game.

Wow! So delicious and easy to make! I followed the recipe exactly except I served it over Jasmine rice and used broccolini instead of broccoli, since that is what I had. I had toasted some sesame seeds to sprinkle on top, but it smelled so good I forgot to add them! Totally fabulous and I'll definitely make this again. Thanks for sharing!

I added cooked broccoli to the sauce and chicken at the end.
