Description

Sesame seed batter gives a new twist to these favored munchies.

Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 cups corn oil
1 egg, beaten
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Directions

1 Rinse chicken with cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut into 1x1x1/2 inch pieces.
2 Fill a deep fryer with corn oil, no more than 1/3 full. Heat to medium heat.
3 Place egg and water in a small bowl and mix well. Add the flour, sesame seeds and salt, stirring until a smooth batter is formed.
4 Dip chicken pieces in batter and drain off any excess. Add battered chicken, a few pieces at a time, to the hot oil. Fry about 4 minutes or until golden brown and done (remove chicken from oil to test). Drain on paper towels.
