Steps:

• In a large skillet, add canola oil over medium heat.
• In a small bowl, mix together all spices. Use 1/2 of mix to season chicken. Let seasoned chicken sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• In a large bowl, add flour and remaining seasoning mix. Toss chicken with seasoned flour and add to hot oil, 1 piece at a time. Cover pan with foil. Remove foil after 8 to 10 minutes and flip chicken. Cook until the chicken is golden brown. Remove from fryer to a paper towel-lined sheet tray. Season with salt, if desired, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a baking dish, place all the ingredients together (place the chicken in the dish first.I truly believe doing this and adding everything right on top of it is what gave me such a nice crispy exterior).
• This is the fun part, where you really get your hands dirty. Mix everything together, making sure the honey is well dissolved.
• Place in the oven for 30-40 minutes, brushing the chicken with the honey mixture about every 10 minutes.
• Cook until done and enjoy!

Steps:

• First make the sesame noodles: Cook the spaghetti according to package directions.
• Drain (I also rinse).

• Shake until well blended and the sugar has dissolved.
• Pour this over the pasta.
• Toss with scallions and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
• Set aside while you marinate and then cook the chicken.
• Funkying the chicken: In a bowl mix the soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, garlic, brown sugar and the ginger.
• Make sure the sugar has pretty much dissolved.
• Add the chicken, making sure it's all coated with the sauce.
• Cover and stick in the fridge for 2-3 hours.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade, and toss out the marinade left at the bottom of the bowl.
• Heat the sesame oil in a large non-stick pan.
• Add the chicken in batches and saute for about 10 minutes, or until done, adding more sesame oil as needed.
• Remove the chicken from the pan and let cool slightly.
• Slice the chicken diagonally into thin strips.
• Serve the chicken over the sesame noodles.
