4
2 Tablespoons Sesame Seeds
1 Tablespoon Water
1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
1 Tablespoon Dry Sherry
1 Teaspoon Ginger Root
1/2 Teaspoon Five-Spice Powder

1/2 Teaspoon Table Salt
1/4 Teaspoon Black Pepper
1 Pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken
2 Teaspoons Peanut Oil
Instructions:
• Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook sesame seeds until they are toasted light brown and then set to the side. If the sesame seeds are already toasted, then skip this step.
