Honey Sesame Chicken Breast

What is it?

Battered chicken breast pieces are fried, then tossed with string beans and red bell peppers in a honey-sesame glaze. The chicken is white meat, so the pieces run leaner than Panda Express’s dark-meat Orange Chicken, with a crisper, drier bite under the sauce. Compared with the sweeter, more lacquered chicken items in the lineup, this one leans a little more toward stir-fry territory. Sesame shows up in the glaze, while the vegetables keep the dish from being just chicken and sauce. It’s served hot as a plated entree or takeout box component, alongside rice or noodles.
