Microwave Steamed Chicken with Sesame Sauce and Sprouts Recipe

Microwave Steamed Chicken with Sesame Sauce and Sprouts Recipe

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 tablespoon sake
  • 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, ground into a paste
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1/2 cup broccoli sprouts, roots removed
  1. Sprinkle salt over chicken breasts and spread evenly over chicken using your hands. Place chicken in a microwave-safe bowl; add sake and top with garlic.
  2. Mix ground sesame seeds, soy sauce, and sugar together in a bowl until sauce is smooth.
  3. Cover bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and heat in microwave until no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Let chicken cool until easily handled, about 10 minutes.
  4. Shred chicken into bite-size pieces and place in serving bowl; top with broccoli sprouts and sauce.
