You can also use the popular Orange Chicken from Trader Joe’s but the sauce is already so good in that product why waste it?
#HONEY SESAME CHICKEN PRO#
Quick pro tip, buy a frozen Orange Chicken bag for the chicken alone then make your own sauces for a quick semi-homemade version, I like the Trader Joe’s Sweet and Sour Chicken one as it is white meat chicken.When Sesame Chicken Breast leaves the Panda Express menu again you guys can continue to make it anytime you want! And if you want to take a shortcut and use your favorite frozen breaded chicken you can make the sauce and vegetable stir fry in no time! Since this dish is still deep fried, it isn’t very healthy, just as healthy as a classic Sweet and Sour Chicken recipe. This Sesame Chicken recipe is slightly healthier because it uses white meat chicken breast instead of chicken thighs like Panda Express uses in their most popular entree, Orange Chicken. Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds before serving.Add in the cooked chicken, sesame oil and the honey sesame sauce and toss quickly to combine.Stir fry the string beans and bell pepper strips for 30 seconds.Bring to a boil and cook until it thickens (don’t make the sauce in your chicken pan).To make the sauce combine the sweet chili sauce, honey, water, white vinegar, lemon juice, salt, soy sauce and cornstarch.Fry the chicken in batches until golden and crisp.Dip chicken pieces in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture.In a large dutch oven or a wok, heat oil to 375 degrees.In a second bowl, add corn starch and flour and mix.To coat the chicken breast add the egg, salt, pepper and 1 tablespoon oil into a medium bowl.

Most Popular Panda Express Recipes: Panda Express Orange Chicken (Copycat) Panda Express Chow Mein (Copycat) Panda Express Mushroom Chicken Panda Express Kung Pao Chicken Copycat Recipe How to Make Panda Express Honey Sesame Chicken Breast I took the chicken breading recipe from my Orange Chicken copycat recipe which has almost 300 comments and a 4.91 rating on the site, so you know it’s awesome. This makes this recipe an authentic copycat for the sauce. So doing a bit of digging I was able to find a great base recipe they released. The good thing about Panda Express is they do often release recipes when they come out with new entrees.

I got dozens of emails asking for a copycat version.ĭon’t forget too, we have ALL the Panda Express Recipes available here on the Panda Express Recipes Index.Ībout a month ago I got a new flood of emails saying it was back! So off I went to the restaurant and I have been ordering full sized entrees daily as I test against the official recipe they released to be sure this is a good copycat for you all. It’s not often that Panda Express comes out with an amazing new entree (remember that General Tso’s disaster?), so when the Sesame Chicken Breast entree came and went last year and I missed out on making a copycat version I felt like I may have missed out on a golden opportunity for you all. PANDA EXPRESS HONEY SESAME CHICKEN BREAST We love food court Chinese Food Recipes like Sesame Chicken and General Tso’s Chicken and this crazy popular twist on a Sesame Chicken recipe from Panda Express is finally back for it’s time in the sun again! Panda Express Honey Sesame Chicken Breast is a healthier twist on Orange Chicken with white meat, green beans and bell peppers.
