very good, but I made twice and liked it better with some changes I made. Coat the chicken pieces in a mixture of cornstarch/flour, it's crunchier that way and won't get soggy when you add the sauce. I don't bother with the onions and peppers, it doesn't add much to the dish and my kids won't eat it that way. Double the sauce, but not the sesame seeds. And I think the chicken will soak up all the sauce no matter how much you make, so I will make extra to serve on the side next time. And I don't have 5 spice blend so I used a bottle of teriyaki sauce, it was already pretty seasoned. The dish was very salty, so I would try watering down the sauce with chicken broth, but that depends on the type of teriyaki sauce you choose to use.

Dish was good not great although husband who is picky liked it and ate remaining for left overs. I did change recipe as previous postings suggested to 3 tbsps olive oil with 2 tbsps sesame oil, used peas although I think to much was added, 4 tbsps terriyaki sauce & honey however I will cut the honey count to 2 tbsps next time due to that it made it to sweet. Maybe more red pepper next time with broccoli instead. Will make again - thank you for the recipe.

Really tasty! We made this for dinner the other day and enjoyed it very much. We'll definitely have it again, and maybe try out some of the variations next time.

Definitely not restaurant quality, but still pretty good. Needed more sauce, so I added more teriyaki sauce, a little soy sauce, and a couple dashes of hot sesame oil. Definitely doesn't need more honey. Also used more oil than in the recipe and subbed green beans and some shitake mushrooms for green pepper and pan fried chicken in a mix of vegetable and sesame oil as suggested.

My family, and I thought this was very good home-made version! I made a few changes to the recipe, though, to suit my family's tastes: 1) I used less chicken (3 fresh chicken breasts), so there will be more sauce. (Note:If you make more chicken, as recommended in recipe, it will soak up the sauce. If you like for the chicken dish to be more saucy, I recommend you double the sauce.) 2) I mixed the honey and terryaki sauce together, so the flavors blend well, before adding it to the chicken. 3) I added alittle brown sugar, to make it slightly sweeter. (Note:The seseme chicken they make at resturants, are more sweet than this recipe calls for.) 4) I omitted the vegetables, because my husband dont like them. (Note: To add or omit the veggies, its up to you; based on personal preferences.) The chicken tastes great, either way. Chicken tastes great with or without white rice. Over-all, this recipe is the closest substitute I found, for the sesame chicken you enjoy, in Chinese resturants. Its good and will satisfy you!

We liked this (by "we" I mean my husband and I), but I did have to double the sauce ingredients. I would highly recommend sticking with the Chinese five spice powder. I did not think that I was going to like it, but I was pleasantly surprised at the flavor. Also, I decided to fry the chicken pieces in 3 tbsp. of canola oil and 2 tbsp. of sesame oil. This really brought out the sesame flavor.

This dish was great! Although I pulled the lazy route and did not fry the chicken or use any flour. Instead I sauteed the chicken with onion and bell pepper. I did triple the sauce and I added the sauce when the chicken was fully cooked (sesame seeds were in the sauce). I then lowered the heat and cooked on medium low for about 20 minutes, letting the chicken absorb the sauce. I served it over white rice. It was wonderful! Even my picky kids loved it. Defo will cook again!
