Baked Sesame Chicken

  1. I used the (hulled) roasted sesame seeds shown in this picture.
  2. Cut the thigh meat into easy-to-eat pieces.
  3. I did not remove the skin, but you can do so if you'd prefer.
  4. Coat the chicken pieces with the seasonings marked by .
  5. Coat the skin side of the meat generously with sesame seeds.
  6. It's okay just to press down the meat into the seeds.
  7. Lay a piece of parchment paper over your toaster oven's baking sheet, and lay the chicken pieces on it sesame seed side up.
  8. Bake for around 10 minutes at 250C, covering with aluminum foil after 5 minutes.
  9. Once the timer dings, don't remove the chicken from the toaster oven, but let it rest in the warm oven with the heat turned off for a few minutes.
  10. It's done!
  11. Golden-brown and juicy!
  12. It's tender and tasty even when cold, so pack it in your bento lunch!
