What do you do when your local grocery store has both chicken breasts and sesame seeds on sale at the same time? 

Silly question, I know. I mean, you’re here because we’re talking about sesame chicken. 

I love Chinese food. LOVE. The problem is, it tends to take a while to make the more traditional recipes. So. I came up with this easier version for a quick lunch. 

It’s easy. The only thing that’s a little bit time intensive is cutting up your meat, which you can totally avoid by purchasing pre-cut pajama meat if you’re so inclined.

I used chicken breasts because like I said, they were on sale. And they were YUM!
