Asian Sweet & Spicy Sauce

Submitted by Indiana Girl 84

"This is our favorite sauce! It is great with sesame seeds and cilantro on battered chicken breast pieces. It is awesome on grilled chicken or fish. It would probably be great in a stir fry as well. We usually serve the chicken (or fish) with extra cilantro on top of the sauce."
