Microwave Steamed Chicken With Sesame Sauce And Sprouts - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 tablespoon sake
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, ground into a paste
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/2 cup broccoli sprouts, roots removed

Preparation

Sprinkle salt over chicken breasts and spread evenly over chicken using your hands. Place chicken in a microwave-safe bowl; add sake and top with garlic.
Mix ground sesame seeds, soy sauce, and sugar together in a bowl until sauce is smooth.
Cover bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and heat in microwave until no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Let chicken cool until easily handled, about 10 minutes.
Shred chicken into bite-size pieces and place in serving bowl; top with broccoli sprouts and sauce.
