Directions
Weight Watchers Sesame Chicken, The restaurant version of this dish is loaded with fat, thanks to deep frying WW has coated the chicken with flour and then pan-seared it to lighten it up 4 points per serving , I’m not sure if it was the 5 spice I bought, but my husband came downstairs thinking I was backing some wonderful CINNAMON treat That’s what this sesame chicken smelled and tasted like Everything else smelled and looked great, but adding that 5 spice totally ruined mine I should have left it out and just used the sauce without it SO, smell your spice first, if it smells like something you bake with, you need a different brand Oh and I have used in the past, I know it gives a nice undertone of seasoning, just not this one I bought Just an FYI, be careful!, I really liked the way the chicken came out It was tender and flavorful I did think the ginger was a tad bit overpowering, but it could be because I had to omit the five spice powder Next time I make it, I will double the sauce and lessen the ginger just a tad My DS LOVED it and DH did not even know he was eating diet food! THANKS!
