This super simple Sesame Chicken recipe is something my Romanian mother-in-law has been cooking us for as long as I can remember and it is always moist and delicious.
And I promise it’s not an its-an-old-lady-cooking-it-so-it-never-goes-wrong recipe. I have made it heaps and my 10-year-old has made it heaps and it is awesome!
It’s perfect served with mashed potatoes and salad leaves! Or even my broccoli mashed potatoes, you can find, here!
