SESAME SEED CHICKEN

It is still hot here in California but, there is just something in the air, especially in the morning and the early evening, that just tells you Fall is on the way.  That is how it feels to me the last few days.

We still have one big weekend left, so today I thought I would give you a recipe for your weekend celebration.  You can make this with just legs, just wings, or mix up your chicken parts.  Use whatever pieces of chicken your family likes best.

SESAME SEED CHICKEN

3 1/2 pounds of chicken (make more if for a crowd, just double the recipe)

Combine together:
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp salt
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 eggs
2 or 3 cloves of garlic chopped very fine
3 green onions chopped into small pieces (use all of the green)
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of sesame seeds

Vegetable oil for frying (deep frying)

Marinate the chicken for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Heat oil and fry the chicken until it is golden and well done.  Oil should not be hotter than 350 degrees.

Serve warm or room temperature.  Yummy for sure
