Quick Sesame Chicken

I was in a huge hurry for dinner tonight...so I stopped and picked up some popcorn chicken from the local supermarket and turned it into sesame chicken in a real hurry!  I made rice to go along with it and the kids loved it!

Sesame Chicken Sauce:

1 C. Chicken Broth
1 C. Sugar
2 Tbl Lemon Juice
2 Tbl Soy Sauce
2 Tbl Sesame Oil
1/2 tsp Chili Paste (you can add more to make it spicier)
1 Garlic Clove, minced
1/4 C. Cornstarch
1/2 C. Water

Bring broth, sugar, lemon juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, chili paste, and garlic to boil.  Dissolve cornstarch in water and add to boiling sauce.  Simmer until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. 

Then I just added my cooked popcorn chicken to the sauce and served over rice.  Super easy!
