I added some shredded carrot and I think some snap peas might be a nice addition. Cooked the chicken with Trader Joe's black pepper sauce brushed on. Added some sriracha to the dressing.

I found this dish to be a little bland. The sesame sauce didn't seem to have a very strong flavor, so your basically eating chicken and a paste. Don't hate it, but don't love it either.

Far too much oil and make sure you use toasted sesame oil. Regular doesn't have any flavor. Even better when you add some crunchy fresh and asian veggies like broccoli florets, sliced water chestnuts, sliced snow peas, julienned carrots, fresh spring peas...use your imagination. Delicious!

This is a good base recipe to add in all kinds of stuff and make changes. I felt it was a little oily but overall good. I would wait a bit for the sugar to dissolve in the sauce mix next time.

Made this recipe using Quinoa pasta and instead of 1/2 cup vegetable oil I used 1/3 cup olive oil and it was just as delicious.

Fabulous! I used 3 tablespoons of agave syrup instead of sugar. Gonna add 1 teaspoon cornstarch, and cook the dressing for a few minutes to thicken it up. I'll add the sesame oil after it cools because I've read that you're not supposed to cook sesame oil due to it's very low smoking point. Like another reviewer said, the cornstarch might thicken it up, so it clings to the pasta better. Other than that, it's delicious!

I didn't like it and my kids didn't like it, I think the taste was too subtle even though I let it sit for an hour after preparing it. My hubby did like it though, so I'll give it two stars for him. Too much prep for too little flavor, I won't make this again.

I think the sesame seeds are what made this dish. I don't often use them but they gave an excellent flavor. Looking back at the ingredients, realized I left out the cilantro, one of my favorite herbs. Next time it will be even better! I also stirred in grated carrot; it'd be good with other fresh veggies, also.This ones's a keeper!
