   Paso 7. Plate and garnish

   Plate the chicken and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onion.

   Bonus - keep reducing the sauce after removing the coated chicken and let the remaining sauce turn into a thick, almost jam-like consistency. Layer this on top of the chicken for a perfectly balanced yet intense bite.
