This recipe with saut?ed chicken breast slices made with basic pantry ingredients is a healthier, simpler, and more savory take on sesame chicken. My husband absolutely loves it. It’s the perfect alternative to a night in with takeout. Serve with steamed rice and vegetables such as broccoli, carrots, and water chestnuts.
Ingredients
- 4 (6 ounce) chicken breast halves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons honey (Optional)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Step 2
Cut chicken breasts into 1/4-inch thick slices; cut slices to 1 1/2 inches in length. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Combine flour, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and onion powder in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss until well coated.
Step 4
