- In a large resealable plastic bag, combine flour, 4 tablespoons of the sesame seeds, black pepper, five-spice powder and red chilli flakes. Place a few pieces of chicken at a time into the bag, and shake to coat. Remove to a platter.
- Heat oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Place chicken into pan, and brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken, and set aside. Stir onion wedges and green pepper slices into pan; cook until slightly browned, about 2 minutes. Remove, and set aside.
- Return chicken to pan, and reduce heat to low. Mix in teriyaki sauce, remaining sesame seeds and honey; stir until sauce thickens. Return onion and green pepper to the pan. Warm through, and serve.

One of our favourite dishes since I've tried it. Both super tasty and easy to prepare, love it!!! - 08 Apr 2015
Fantastic. Though I will admit I was unsure the chicken would cook with flour on so I kept it in the pan the whole time. We don't like sesame seeds but otherwise this recipe was brilliant. We had this dish with noodles but rice would work just as well. - 19 Feb 2015
Lovely I really enjoyed this. Next time I make it though I think I would add a little more 5 spice powder and chilli flakes. - 05 Feb 2014
