Sesame Chicken
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
½ cup cornstarch
Canola oil
1 1/3 cup water
¼ cup sugar
2 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp. Oyster Sauce
½ tsp. garlic powder
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 ½ cups broccoli, cut into small pieces
Sesame seeds
Cut chicken into 1 inch cubes. Put ½ cup cornstarch in plastic bag and toss chicken cubes in bag until well coated. Add enough canola oil into your skillet to generously coat bottom. Fry chicken until medium brown. While chicken is frying, prepare sauce by mixing in saucepan water, sugar, soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic powder and cornstarch. Stir mixture over medium heat until thickened and pour over chicken. Simmer 3 minutes. Add prepared broccoli and steam until desired tenderness. Stir in sesame seeds and serve over rice.

This is really funny that you posted this just now because I just barely was reading an egg roll recipe that asked for oyster sauce and I had never hear of it. And then you use it too! What is it?
it's similar to soy sauce but not really. lol. it's thicker than soy sauce and it's not as strong to me. it's used in a lot of asian dishes and it's not gross like you'd think. we keep a bottle at our house all the time because we like the sesame chicken so much. you can find it at almost any store in the asian food section. by the way, did your sharing time work out the way you wanted? it sounded really cute and fun.
