Been watching cooking shows for over 30 years. CiCi is the FIRST one to explain why double frying chicken (or fish) makes the dish LESS greasy/ oily. Thanks CiCi! And that Chicken looks ah-MAZING!
CiCi your recipe for Sesame chicken has being a great success in my household this is the second time I make it and it is delicious!! 😋 Thank you for the step by step video and I love 💕 your stories as a child. Thank you again and keep on cooking from my kitchen to your!
@@irracalifano I followed the recipe but for the sauce I used hoison sauce, ginger powder, garlic, sesame oil, chili oil, squeeze the orange for the juice. Delicious.
Years ago I lived in a town with a fabulous Chinese restaurant that had a daily lunch buffet to die for. Every offering on the food bar was just tremendous - not a bad dish to be found. However, their sesame chicken was insanely delicious, and it's what kept me coming back time and again. I would eat so much of it with their amazing Chinese egg noodles that I would go back to work full and tired. But I couldn't help it! When we moved away I was never able to find sesame chicken that even compared. But your sesame chicken looks absolutely IDENTICAL to those in my memories, so I cannot wait to try it. Thank you!
I made this yesterday and added some crushed red pepper to the sauce and it was fantastic, the combination of sweet and spicy was amazing. Ty for the recipe.
Looks absolutely delicious! I was diagnosed with heart disease last year and have been looking for alternative ways to make my favorite Asian foods with lower fat and sodium. Have you ever tried to use an air fryer instead of deep frying? Thank you.
What a wonderful mother you are to feed your children lots of vegetables. Thank you for encouraging your viewers to eat lots of vegetables too, for good health. Your sesame chicken looks delicious. You're a very talented chef.

I gave up on searching for Sesame Chicken recipes because no one would explain the proper way on how to make the sauce and how to cook the chicken. I will definitely be trying this soon or they would just overcomplicate the whole thing. I'm gonna add some broccoli to mine. Thank you!
Hi Cici Li! I made this today and it was delicious, but as soon as I put the crispy chicken cubes in the sauce at the end they softened up. How do you keep them crispy?
Monika Csonka Hi Monika , I also have tried this recipe . I would suggest letting the chicken sit a few minutes after frying before you dip into the sauce! Hope this helps :)
Boss Queen I tried several times with adjustments by it never crisped up sufficiently. I figure I'll just makes this rarely with deep frying (the shallow oil method to minimize the mess/cleanup).
Me gustaría que nos dejaras en la descripción del video los integrantes que usas y los nombres de las salsas que usas , muchas gracias por tu video soy nueva en tu canal me encanta la comida asiática
