Basil Lime Teriyaki Chicken

#toc4 #cookpadindia #cookeverypart #sesameseeds #chicken #thaibasil #garlic #teriyakisauce #lime #lemon This is a quick and easy scrumptious recipe, as I often make Basil Chicken, so I thought why not give it a bit of twist and add some lemon and teriyaki sauce and cook as I love orange and teriyaki sauce made with Salmon you remember, you can do that with chicken and Tofu too. The taste was mind blowing. Do try this recipe next time you have a party, your friends and family are going to love it. It goes well as main course with noodles, fried rice etc or as an appetizer too.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Put the Chicken pieces into a bowl, add Teriyaki sauce and black pepper, mix well and let it marinate for about 10-15 minutes. Mix Cornstarch and rice flour and dredge the chicken pieces in it. Heat oil and fry till it's golden brown and well cooked.

* Step 2

Put it on a kitchen tissue paper to absorb excess oil if any. It took me 20 minutes to fry chicken in batches. While chicken pieces are frying, mix in Terayaki Sauce, Lime juice and zest, honey, water and cornstarch in a bowl.

* Step 3

Take little oil from the chicken fried oil and add the chopped garlic and chilli, when it's about to start browning, add the mixed sauce prepared. Then add the fried chicken and cook till the sauce starts thickening, add in the Thai Basil too and mix well and your Chicken is ready. It will take about 5-10 minutes. Put it on a serving plate, garnish with sesame seeds and more Thai Basil, if you want.
