chicken broth

green beans
cauliflower
sesame seeds
 
INSTRUCTIONS


  1. Whisk together first six ingredients then set aside
  2. Slice the chicken breasts into strips and then marinate it in soy sauce and sesame then set it aside
  3. In a pan, brown the chicken using the sesame oil until it is browned
  4. Add the green beans and cauliflower, making sure not to overcook it
  5. Continue to cook this until the sauce has thickened, adding more flour if necessary
  6. Top this with toasted sesame seeds
Personally, chicken is an ultimate favorite for me. Of the many meats, I could have chicken everyday and be a happy woman. This chicken dish is absolutely lovely. I was supposed to use chicken breast fillets, but this one I cooked was made with thigh fillets, and I do not like it much. It is more tender and juicy, as most thighs are supposed to be, but lean meats (breasts) are better --- I’d say. 

The combination of flavors used in for this dish easy to love. The taste of sesame oil and soy sauce is just amazing, and the look of the sesame seeds make it even more tasteful not just to the eye, as it turns out.
