As promised, this week we are going international! Okay, well, we are at least being internationally inspired. Today, we are going to take a simple chicken breast, and create a dish that would make even Mr Miyagi say “Yummmmmm.”

This dish is so simple. Start early though, because it does need to marinate for about five hours. It may seem like a long time, but trust me, it is worth it!


Here’s what you will need:

- 1/3 cup soy sauce

- 1/4 cup canola oil

- 2 green onions, thinly sliced

- 2 tb. honey

- 2 tb. chicken broth

- 2 garlic cloves, minced

- 1 tsp minced fresh ginger root

- 1 tb. Sesame seed

- 3 medium-large boneless chicken breasts


In mixing bowl, combine first seven incredients.

Place chicken and marinade in large Ziploc bag

Seal bag, gently shake to coat and refrigerate for 5 hours


Bake marinated chicken at 350° for 20-30 minutes or until cooked through the middle. Serve over steamed rice and vegetables of choice.




Whether you are celebrating Chinese New Year or just trying to impress someone with Chinese take-out from your own kitchen, you are sure to please with this simple, delicious ginger-sesame chicken!
