Chook Me!

I need a sesame chicken and fried rice recipe. Can you help at all?

I just love to cook! I decided I might make dinner for my family one night, preferably tonight. I've been looking for a recipe, but it's not right! I went to an Asian cuisine restaurant and they had sesame chicken that was covered in a sweet, sticky sauce. Please help me by giving me a good recipe! It needs to be good for at least 5-6 people. Thanks everyone!

1. INGREDIENTS: 3 whole boneless chicken breasts Marinade: 2 tablespoons light soy sauce 1 tablespoon cooking wine or dry sherry a few drops of sesame oil 2 tablespoons flour 2 tablespoons cornstarch 2 tablespoons water 1/4 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon vegetable oil Sauce for Sesame Chicken: 1/2 cup water 1 cup chicken broth 1/8 cup vinegar 1/4 cup cornstarch 1 cup sugar 2 TB dark soy sauce 2 TB sesame oil 1 tsp chili paste, or more if desired 1 clove garlic (minced) Other: 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds (see recipe directions for link to how to toast) 3 1/2 - 4 cups peanut oil for deep-frying PREPARATION: Toast the sesame seeds and set aside. Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes. Mix the marinade ingredients and marinate the chicken for 20 minutes. To prepare the sauce: mix together all of the sauce ingredients. Pour them into a small pot and bring to a boil, stirring continuously. Turn the heat down to low and keep warm while you are deep-frying the chicken. To deep-fry the chicken: add the marinated chicken pieces a few at a time, and deep-fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remainder of the chicken. Just before you are finished deep-frying, bring the sauce back up to a boil. Place the chicken on a large platter and pour the sauce over. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve the Sesame Chicken with rice
