Sweet, Sticky Sesame Chicken
This spicy sticky chicken recipe turns out spicy, sweet, and tastes delicious. It’s great as an appetiser or as a main dish served with rice and whatever veggies you like.
Use whatever meat you like. Turkey escalopes works particularly well I often make this as a lunch using some rice I’ve pulled from the freezer.
