SESAME CHICKEN NUGGETS WITH SWEET SAUCE
You can use chicken tenders for this recipe also. Great OAMC recipe as you can freeze the nuggets after frying. Just reheat them on a cookie sheet in a 375F oven for about 15 minutes.

SWEET 'N STICKY SESAME CHICKEN
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and set it aside. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and place in a bowl with egg substitute. Toss to coat and set aside. Put flour in another bowl. One at a time, use a fork or tongs to transfer chicken "nuggets" to the flour bowl, allowing excess egg substitute to drain back into the egg bowl. Thoroughly coat the chicken with flour and then transfer to the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining flour and chicken. Bake the chicken in the oven until fully cooked, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, to make the sauce, combine broth with cornstarch in a nonstick skillet and whisk to dissolve. Set stove to medium-low heat. Add syrup, vinegar, ketchup, soy sauce, sesame oil, and garlic. Mix well. Stirring often, cook until it's thick enough to coat a spoon, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Add chicken and toss to coat. Plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions. If you like, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes. Eat up!
SESAME CHICKEN NUGGETS
After watching a programme on the making of chicken products, I swore never to buy processed chicken again. A problem when my kids love nuggets. I searched for a recipe and found this one in Simply Delicious. My kids love it, and their friends request it whenever they come here. Tasty, simple and easy, I can't help but wonder why I ever bothered buying it ready made before. I've made this with and without mint. Add another 30 mins chilling time to the timing.

Steps:
- Cut chicken breasts into 4 cm (2in) cubes.
- In a large bowl, mix together breadcrumbs, sesame seeds, mint, paprika, salt and pepper until thoroughly combined.
- Coat chicken nuggets first in beaten egg and then in breadcrumb mixture. Put on a baking sheet and chill for 30 minutes Heat oil in a frying pan and fry nuggets for 10 mins, turning occasionally until golden and crispy.
- Remove from pan with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper before serving.
- Recipe suggests serving with tartar sauce. My kids grabbed a bottle of Heinz tomato sauce.
- Tip: chilling the chicken once it is coated in breadcrumbs makes the mixture less likely to fall off during frying. (So says the recipe!).
