One of my favorite chicken dishes is sesame chicken nuggets. I usually eat it at a simchah or when I go out to eat. I never make it because it takes a long time to prepare. I wondered if I could create something that has similar undertones yet doesn’t require one drop of coating or frying.
I opened my fridge and cupboards, took out the ingredients I thought I would need, and started throwing them into a pot. It came out delish!!! It was yummy, easy, and everyone wanted seconds. Was it an exact recreation of sesame chicken nuggets? No. But did it have similar flavor undertones, while also being healthy and filling? Yes!
5 to 6 chicken cutlets, cut into nugget-sized pieces
8-and-1/2-ounce can tomato paste
water (2 x 8 and 1/2 ounces)
4 teaspoons Haddar Brown Sugar
3 teaspoons Telma Teriyaki Sauce
hot sauce (optional)
Gefen Sesame Seeds (optional)
Place the chicken nuggets and tomato paste in a pot.
Refill the empty tomato paste can with water and pour it into the pot. Do this twice.
Add the brown sugar and teriyaki sauce to the pot.
Stir a few times to mix everything together.
If you prefer a dish with a kick, add a squirt of hot sauce.
Place on a medium-sized flame and boil uncovered for about 30 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the liquid is lightly condensed.
Throw in the sesame seeds (if using) and give the pot one final stir to coat.
Want to make this a full one-pot meal? After 25 minutes of boiling, add in one and a half cups of rice and allow it to cook for 15 minutes.
