3/4 cup hoisin sauce |
1/4 cup sweet asian chile sauce or hot pepper jelly |

1/4 cup chicken stock or broth |

Transfer to a saucepan and simmer until slightly thickened, 5 minutes. 3. Transfer the chicken to a bowl and toss with the sauce, until completely coated. 4. Preheat the broiler and position a rack 8 inches from the heat. Return the chicken to the baking sheet and broil for about 10 minutes, brushing with the sauce and turning occasionally, until glazed and sticky. 5. Add the sesame seeds to a bowl. Dip the chicken in the seeds to coat; serve. |
