Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1/4 pound each)
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce

Instruction

  • Fill 3/4 of a small pot with water and 1 tsp salt, and bring to a boil. Add chicken, cover and simmer for 7 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Drain and transfer each poached chicken breast onto a plate.
  • Put sesame seeds and grapeseed oil in a blender or grinder and pulse until you get a smooth paste.
  • Transfer mixture into a bowl and add soy sauce, honey, vinegar and hot sesame oil. Whisk until smooth. Set aside.
