Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cloves minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1/2 cup apricot preserves
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon boiling water
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
3/4 cup finely ground blanched almond
1/4 cup sesame seeds
2 cups vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Mix the garlic, ginger, lemon juice and soy sauce in a large, sturdy, sealable plastic bag.
  • Slice the chicken breasts into one-inch slices.
  • Place the chicken in the marinade and refrigerate over night.
  • Melt the apricot preserves in a small saucepan until smooth.
  • In a small serving bowl, mix the mustard and hot water until smooth.
  • Blend the apricots and lemon juice into the mustard mixture and garnish, if desired.
  • Set aside to cool.
  • Mix the ground almonds and sesame seeds.
  • Heat about two inches of the oil over medium heat in a large skillet to about 350 degrees.
  • Dip the chicken pieces into the almond-sesame mixture and deep fry several at a time until golden brown on each side, about one minute.
  • If they brown too fast, remove the skillet from the heat for a few minutes and reduce the heat.
  • Drain the chicken thoroughly on paper towels before serving hot with the dip.
