Mmmm!!! this was so fresh tasting the orange flavour really came through and I just love that taste of the sesame seeds on top. Putting the chicken in cornstarch gives the chicken a very nice texture when eating it, very soft and moist . DH said this was very, very nice, and yes! I would love you to make it again, so I guess I will. I served it with Jasmine rice. Thank you for posting. Made for ZWT#6 2010.

He traveled 3000 miles with his cat to come to marry me. <br /><br />I owned my own craft store for 10 years but gave that up after a huge craft discount depot opened just 4 blocks from me. I used to teach 6 days a week; crafts like quilting, dried wreaths, Christmas ornaments, etc.</p>
