Sesame Chicken


Ingredients:
1 large chicken, cut up
3 T sesame seeds

Marinade:
5 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 egg

Cracker Mixture:
1 1/2 c crushed crackers
1/2 c grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 c chopped parsley
1/4 cup grated onion
1 t salt
1/4 t pepper

Procedure:
1.  Preheat oven at 350F.
2.  Rinse chicken pieces and pat dry.
3.  Marinate chicken pieces in garlic, Worcestershire sauce and egg.
4. Combine crackers, Parmesan cheese, parsley, onion, salt and pepper.
5. Coat chicken thickly all over with cheese and cracker mixture.
6. Place chicken skin side up in baking pan.
7. Dot with butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
8. Bake uncovered at 350F for 1 hr or until tender.

My notes:
I mix Fita and Skyflakes together for the crackers. Sometimes, I use cornflakes. For the sesame seeds, I sprinkle all 3 tbsp on top of the chicken or add 2 tbsp to the cracker mixture and 1 tbsp on top of the chicken. I serve this with Sweet Chili Sauce on the side.

You can halve the recipe for the cracker mixture because it's really a lot. My son loves crunchy food and so he insists that leftover cracker mixture should be spread on top of the chicken.
