Spicy Sesame Chicken!
This is quick, a little spicy, nutritious and delicious!
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 5-6 oz. each)Nonstick cooking spray
3 T sesame seeds
3 T all-purpose flour
1/4 t salt
1/4 t cayenne pepper
3 T lower sod. teriyaki sauce
1 T butter, melted
Preheat the oven to 400 F.
Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with the cooking spray.
In a large plastic zip-top bag, combine sesame seeds, flour, salt and pepper. Dip chicken in teriyaki sauce. Add chicken to the mixture in the plastic bag. Seal the bag and shake to coat the chicken.
Place chicken on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle the melted butter over the chicken.
Bake until tender and no longer pink – about 20-30 minutes.
Serves 4.
I served this with chunks of fresh pineapple and steamed broccoli sprinkled with lemon juice. For the starch-eaters in the family, I made thick Chinese wheat noodles tossed with a little sesame oil and soy sauce.
