    1 Tablespoon oil, 3 boneless skinless chicken breast,
  • Add asparagus and leftover marinade. Bring to a boil and boil for 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat and stir in Dorot basil. Simmer for 1-2 minutes or until sauce is thickened. Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.

Notes

  1. It is okay to use the marinade to create the sauce as long as it boils for at least 3 minutes to kill any potential bacteria from coming in contact with the raw chicken. Alternatively, you can make double of the marinade and reserve half to use for the sauce.
