Hawaiian Sesame Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients (except cornstarch slurry, green onions and sesame seeds) in a large pot and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce to low and cook very slowly, covered, until chicken is tender, about 30 to 35 minutes more. Continue to skim the broth for fat and impurities.
• Remove chicken to a serving platter. Strain the sauce and bring to a boil. Thicken with the cornstarch slurry, adding it very slowly to avoid any clumps to desired thickness.
• Glaze over the chicken. Garnish with slices of green onion.
• Suggestion: Save some of the sauce, it goes wonderfully over rice, the dish tastes better the second day -- ;-)
• Serve with rice, and what the heck, mac salad! Onolicious!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400.
• Dip chicken slices in milk and then bread crumbs.
• Brown in melted butter over medium heat.
• Season with salt and pepper and remove chicken to baking dish.
• Place chicken uncovered in 400 degree oven for 20-30 minutes.
• For the Sauce: Add reserved juice to pan drippings.
• Add brown sugar, ginger, dried onion, orange zest, sesame seeds and soy sauce to taste.
• Cook until syrupy and add pineapple chunks.
• Pour sauce over chicken and serve over a bed of rice.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cut chicken into about 1 inch X 2 inch pieces.
• In a large nonporous glass dish or bowl, combine the soy sauce, maple syrup, sherry, ginger and five spice powder. Mix together. Add chicken pieces and toss to coat. Cover dish and refrigerate for 20 minutes, turning once, to marinate. After 20 minutes, drain chicken, reserving marinade. Boil reserved marinade in a small saucepan for 5 minutes to remove risk of bacteria.
• Meanwhile, spread sesame seeds out evenly on an aluminum foil-lined cookie sheet. Bake in the preheated oven, to toast, for 10 minutes or until slightly browned.
• Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. In a shallow dish or bowl combine flour and salt and pepper to taste. Dredge chicken in seasoned flour, shaking off any excess. Brown chicken pieces in oil for about 1 minute each side. Spoon boiled marinade over chicken, reduce heat and saute all together for 1 more minute or until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.
• Remove chicken pieces from heat and roll in toasted sesame seeds. Rinse and dry lettuce leaves; line serving platter with leaves and spoon chicken on top. Garnish with tomato wedges and serve.

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix together mochiko, corn starch, sugar, eggs, shoyu, salt, sesame oil, garlic and ¼ cup of green onions.
• Cut chicken into bite size pieces for quick and even cooking.
• Fold chicken into batter and let marinate in the refrigerator for 24 to a maximum of 48 hours.
• Stir mochiko chicken batter every once in a while so that the flavor is evenly distributed.
• For large batches (for parties) I marinate it for at least 24hrs in a large bowl or pot, then I double Ziploc bag it, in batches and store them in a cooler on ice until I'm ready to cook it.
• When ready, Deepfry chicken for about 5 - 7 minutes or until dark golden brown and place in a pan lined with paper towels to drain the excess oil.
• Garnish with chopped green onion and sesame seeds.
• If using chicken breasts, cook for 3 to 4 minutes and serve hot, the chicken will be nice and tender.

Steps:

• Set oven to 350°F.
• Place chicken in baking dish.
• Melt butter in large skillet on low heat.

• Add excess pineapple juice from can of pineapple chunks.
• Sprinkle pineapple chunks over chicken.
• Mix brown sugar, salt, vinegar, worcestershire sauce, and chili powder in skillet until well blended.
• Turn skillet to medium heat and let simmer for 2 minutes.
• Stir in ketchup and soy sauce.
• Stir in corn starch mixture and blend well, sauce will become very thick.
• Let simmer 2-3 more minutes.
• Pour sauce over chicken and pineapple chunks.
