Sesame Chicken Recipe

Rating 4

"For flavorful, moist and tender chicken, try this marinade," suggests Julie Lake from Anchorage, Alaska. "The sesame seeds cling well to season the meat. We also like this mixture on chicken wings, beef short ribs and pork."

We've made this recipe several times. I do modify it by using less sugar or sugar-free brown sugar blend. My kids love it!
