Ingredients

  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, nearly thawed
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons orange marmalade
  • 1 tablespoon sweet rice cooking wine (aji mirin), or white wine
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • Rice, for serving

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes (easiest when not completely thawed). In a medium bowl, mix together the soy sauce, orange marmalade, wine, and crushed red pepper flakes. Toss in the chicken cubes and marinate for at least 10 minutes and up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.

In another bowl or plastic bag, mix together the flour and sesame seeds. Drain the chicken cubes and blot any excess liquid, and then toss in the flour to coat lightly. Spread the chicken cubes on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with the melted butter. Bake until the chicken is crispy but not dry, about 20 minutes, turning the cubes halfway through. Serve with rice.

    I made a second batch of marinade for dipping. I also added a few drops of sesame oil, 1 tsp of fresh ginger and 1 clove of minced garlic. I also let it bake a bit longer. Great dish!

    Lacked in flavor and texture. The flavor the marinade created made my son gag. I expected crunchy sweet and savory chicken with a stickiness from the marinade. I tasted soy sauce flavored chicken and wished the outside was crunchy but it wasn't. I'm very disappointed.
