This better-than-takeout, 30-minute sticky sesame chicken is so super easy to make and so ridiculously delicious, you’ll never need to order this dish out again.

This Chinese restaurant-inspired sesame chicken recipe is made with pieces of crispy battered chicken tossed in a deliciously sweet sesame sauce.

Sesame Chicken

garlic paste

ginger paste

soy sauce, (lite)

rice vinegar

red pepper flakes, (crushed)

chicken breast, (boneless, skinless, and

buttermilk

all-purpose flour

black pepper

vegetable or peanut oil, (for frying)

green onions, (finely sliced)

white rice

In a small saucepan, saute ginger and garlic paste in sesame oil for 1 to 2 minutes, or until fragrant.

Stir 1½ tablespoons of cornstarch into ½ cup of water.

Add the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, cornstarch/water mixture, and red pepper flakes to the saucepan.

Simmer over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until sauce thickens to a syrup consistency. This will take approximately 10 minutes.

Remove from heat.

Fill a deep stockpot/Dutch oven or frying pan with 2 to 3 inches of oil.

Affix a food thermometer to the side of the pan and heat the oil to 350°F. This will take about 10 minutes to reach the desired temperature.

While the oil is heating, prepare the battered chicken. Whisk together the salt, pepper, and flour in a bowl. Then pour the buttermilk into a second bowl.

Working with just a few pieces of chicken at a time, dip each piece of chicken into the flour mixture to coat it. Then, dip it into the buttermilk. Finally, dip it back into the flour mixture and set it on a separate plate.

When the oil has reached 350°F, batch cook the chicken. Add 5 to 8 pieces of battered chicken to the hot oil at a time, frying for about 2 minutes and then flipping them over to cook on the other side for another 2 minutes.

When the chicken is uniformly golden brown, remove it from the oil, draining the excess oil back into the pan, and placing the fried chicken onto a few paper towels to absorb any additional oil.

Continue batch cooking the chicken, ensuring that the oil maintains a fairly constant temperature of 350°F.

When all of the chicken has finished cooking, transfer it to a large bowl.

Pour the sauce over the top and toss to coat evenly.

Serve over rice immediately then garnish with toasted sesame seeds and green onions, if desired.
