Ingredients:

Serving

2 tsp cornstarch
2 tbsp rice wine
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 dash hot pepper sauce
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
1 clove crushed garlic
1 lb skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite size pieces
2 tbsp sesame seeds
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp vegetable oil
4 oz fresh mushrooms, quartered
1 green bell pepper, sliced
4 green onions, sliced diagonally into 1/2 inch pieces

Directions:

To Make Marinade: In a nonporous dish or bowl blend cornstarch with wine or sherry; then stir in lemon juice, soy sauce, hot pepper sauce, ginger and garlic. Blend together and stir in chicken strips. Cover dish and refrigerate to marinate for 3 to 4 hours.
In a wok or large skillet, place sesame seeds and dry-fry over medium heat, shaking the wok, until the seeds are a golden brown color. Remove seeds and set aside.
To same wok or skillet add sesame oil and vegetable oil and heat slowly. Drain chicken, reserving marinade, and stir-fry in wok a few pieces at a time, until browned. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Add mushrooms and green bell pepper to same wok or skillet and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the scallions and stir-fry 1 minute more. Return chicken to wok, together with reserved marinade, and stir over medium high heat for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the ingredients are evenly coated with the glaze. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top and serve immediately.
