I’m a huge fan of Chinese food and I am slowly converting my husband. I finally had him going out to eat and then we got the news that my daughter has a peanut allergy. Which means Chinese restaurants are a big no-no now. I’m a big fan of re-creating things at home anyways, but now it’s vital to keep my tastebuds happy! This Sesame Chicken will definitely fool your tastebuds. You’ll think you are enjoying take-out and will quickly forget that it only comes in around 250 calories! That’s a win win in my book! If you’re still no convinced, wait till I tell you it takes less than 10 minutes to make. When you’ve had a hard day at work, grab some instant brown rice and whip this up. Quick, delicious, and healthy. It doesn’t get any better!

- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp ground black pepper

In a gallon-size plastic bag, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Add chicken, seal bag, and shake well to coat.
