    Chinese Orange-Sesame Chicken, This Americanized Chinese recipe is a fusion of two classic dishes- orange chicken and sesame chicken. I found it on an excellent blog, Appetite for China. This recipe makes extra sauce (perfect for rice!)., Overall it was good! However the sauce was a bit runny so I had to double up on the cornstarch to thicken the sauce. I also added chili peppers to give it a bit of a spice and steamed broccoli to compliment the dish.
