Directions
Preheat oven to 375°F.
<br/>
<br/>
Place chicken breasts on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake for about 16 to 20 minutes, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Flip breasts halfway through cooking.
<br/>
<br/>
In a large bowl, whisk oil, vinegar and sugar together. Toss in coleslaw mix, cilantro and sesame seeds. Season to taste with salt and a little Asian chili sauce if desired for a spicy kick.
<br/>
<br/>
Meanwhile make the peanut sauce: In a small bowl, mix ingredients together until smooth. The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. Serve warm or at room temperature.
<br/>
<br/>
To serve, drizzle each chicken breast with about 1/4 cup peanut sauce and top with sesame coleslaw. Garnish with green onion.
<br/>
<br/>
Chef's Twist: If making skewers, cut each breast into 4 long strips and skewer. Place on sprayed baking sheet and cook for about 8 to 10 minutes, flipping skewers after 5 minutes. Serve with Peanut Sauce for dipping! A package of 2 breasts makes 8 skewers.
