Easy Sesame Chicken Stir-Fry - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
8 boneless skinless chicken breasts (sliced into bite-size pieces, about 1-inch or a little larger or cut into strips)
1/4 cup cornstarch
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon seasoning salt, divided
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil, divided (or use a much as desired)
toasted sesame seeds
1 small finely chopped green onion (optional)
Preparation
-
Place the chicken cubes in a large bowl.
Sprinkle cornstarch over the chicken; using clean hand toss together to coat the chicken with the cornstarch until well coated.
Heat 2 tablespoons in a wok over high heat.
Add in HALF of the chicken, then sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt and black pepper; stir-fry for about 5 minutes or until JUST cooked (do not overcook the chicken, it will cook in very little time, I use 2 smaller heat-proof spatulas for stir-frying).
Add in 1 tablespoon (or more) of soy sauce and continue cooking and tossing until coated with the sauce.
Remove the wok from heat then drizzle about 1 teaspoon seasme oil over the cooked chicken; toss until very well to combined.
Place the chicken in a bowl.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in the wok.
Repeat the process with remaining chicken, seasoned salt, soy sauce and sesame oil.
Sprinkle lightly with sesame seeds, then chopped green onion.
