1/2 cup sweet hot mustard
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup vegetable oil (3 or 4 turns of the pan, total)
1 1/3 lbs chicken breast tenders
salt and pepper
1 1/2 inches fresh gingerroot, grated or minced
3 tbsp rice vinegar (3 generous splashes)
1/4 cup chinese duck sauce or 1/4 cup apricot fruit spread
