Sesame Chicken Rice Bowl Recipe

Selam everybody..Merhaba from Turkey.

Asian style dish is always my prefer. Just like this restaurant style dish-Sesame chicken. 
Today I am going to share sesame chicken rice bowl. The dish seems look alike general tso's chicken, but it is different actually in taste where this sesame chicken has more on sweet and light sour rather than spicy.

For the vegetable side dish I made simple shredded carrot and napa cabbage dressing with my simple version of thousand island dressing. It's just perfect for the sesame chicken.

This take away style dish amazingly easy and relatively quick to make So if you are asian food's fan as well I am sure you are going to love this. (^,^)



Serve 2
Ingredients:

• 8 oz (250 g) boneless and skinless chicken breast, cut into strips

• White sesame, for garnishing

Batter for chicken:

• ½ cup (65 g) all-purpose flour, sifted

• ½ tsp baking powder

• ⅓ cup (80 ml) cold water 
• 1 tbsp sesame oil 
• Pinch of salt
• Oil for deep fry

Mix all batter ingredient (except oil for deep fry) in medium bowl. Using balloon whisk mix until combine and smooth.

Add the chicken into the batter, stir to evenly coat with the batter.

Heat enough oil in a wok or a stockpot for deep-frying. Gently drop the chicken into the oil and loosen them up immediately with a spatula to prevent the chicken from clumping together. Deep-fry the chicken to a golden brown. Draining the excess oil by laying the chicken on a dish lined with paper towels.

Mix all the ingredients in the Sauce until well combined. Set aside.

Finishing:

In a wok or skillet heat 1 tbsp oil and 1 tbsp sesame oil over high heat. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant. Stir in sauce mixture and continue to cook until the sauce thickens.
