Personal Notes:
This was a very easy and light dish. I would suggest turning the chicken over about half way through cooking if it is at all possible. Also, when buying sesame oil, be sure and look on ingredients to see if it says toasted sesame oil. Buy a small bottle because you don't use it all that often and it is expensive but is a necessary ingredient.
