Whole30 Gluten-Free Sesame Chicken

Whisk all the sauce ingredients (except the tapioca starch) together in a large frying pan over medium/high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, whisk tapioca starch and 2 teaspoons of the sauce together in a separate small bowl until smooth. While constantly whisking, pour back into the frying pan until smooth. Boil, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens and is glossy, about 2–3 minutes. Turn down the heat to medium low and cook and additional 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer to a large bowl, season with a pinch of salt, and cover to keep warm.

For the sesame chicken, place tapioca starch and a pinch of salt in a large resealable bag. Add chicken and toss until coated.

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil up in a large frying pan over medium high heat. Add half the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes. Flip and repeat on the other side. Once cooked, transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and blot off any excess oil. Repeat with remaining oil and chicken.

Transfer chicken to the bowl with the sauce, along with the sesame seeds. Stir until well coated.

Serve over cauliflower rice with green onions and devour!
