Sesame Chicken Recipe with step by step pictures. Spicy and flavourful chicken filled with sesame flavours.
Malaysia is famous for its street food dishes. This is one of those dishes that can be made within 15 min. This recipe is modified from Rasamalysia.com. I added couple of extra stuffs to make it even more tasty. If you like sesame flavour then this dish is for you. The additional sesame seeds gives you little bit of crunch. .

This chicken came out super tasty and my family went crazy about it. There was a huge fight for the last piece and i had to promise them a repeat of the same next meal for the quarrel to subside.
I did make some slight modifications, though. I added some red, green, yellow and orange cubed bell peppers, one onion cubed, and a dash of Sriracha sauce to add more zing to the dish.
Thank you for the fabulous recipe.
