Crispy Mochiko Chicken created by Jenny Sanders

Classic Hawaiian-style chicken. Great for picnics, kids love this. Do not substitute the Mochiko for other flours...it's the secret ingredient! Cook time does not include time to marinate.

This made for a well-seasoned chicken, and it quickly disappeared in my house. The flavor for me was a little too strong in soy sauce. Next time I'll try it with a sauce lower in sodium (and better in quality).

Very nice! I used chives instead of green onions, and light soy sauce. I didn't have any hoisin sauce so I omitted it. It seemed like a lot of sesame seeds while I was toasting them, but the amount was fine. Nice light crispy coating and tender chicken.
