Sticky Sesame Chicken Strips | TGIs Fakeaway Recipe | Slimming Friendly
Fakeaway Recipe: Sticky strips of chicken with a BBQ glaze topped with
sesame seeds, my take on the famous TGIs dish made
slimming friendly!
A few years ago when I first visited TGIs, these were my absolute favourite
dish on the menu. I have wanted to try and recreate them for a while, and
after lot's of testing, I finally think I have this nailed!
They are tasty little strips, and I absolutely love them! There isn't a TGIs
near me sadly, so I had to resort to creating my own! I can also save on some
calories this way too.
They are really easy to make, and with my recipe, you don't need to fry them.
I cooked them in the oven on a baking tray with some low-calorie cooking
spray.
