On busy weeknights it’s so tempting to hit the drive thru or order take-out. Are there nights when getting dinner onto the table fast is your main concern? I’ve certainly been there a time or two. A lot, really. I am fast becoming a fan of McCormick Skillet Sauces. They make getting dinner onto the table a breeze. Many thanks to McCormick for sponsoring today’s recipe which is better than take-out Sesame Chicken Stir-Fry.

This definitely looks better than restaurant food and I’m sure it’s way healthier!!!
That sounds delicious. I love Asian inspired foods and they’re even better when you make them at home!

That really sounds easy to make and does sound very tasty! I am going to have to check out those McCormick skillet sauce packs and SOON.
I really love take out sesame chicken! But with your recipe it looks healthier and better for you. I will be checking it out!
We love anything on the oriental side for dishes. This one looks amazing. I am going to pin it for later because I know the boys will love it.
I love takeout made in the home! This looks delish and I will be trying it on my menu rotation for sure!
This is so simple and looks super delicious! That is exactly how I like my recipes! Thank you for sharing this!
Love this and it is so easy too! Thanks for the great idea!!
I have seen these sauces and need to pick up some. This recipe sounds amazing and looks so easy to do.
Oh YUM! We don’t have Chinese by us any more so I’m all for anything I can do/make at home. Definitely trying this soon!
Oh my goodness! This looks so delicious! I want to make this for dinner!
You have made this with just a few items! Looks better than what you get at restaurants!
I’ve made Stir Fry chicken before but it has never came out to good. I can’t wait to try your recipe. I am always up for a new cooking challenge lol even though its as simple as Stir Fry Chicken.
Oh what a great recipe, looks easy too! I so can have this on my diet minus the rice!
This not only looks good but sounds very simple. I would prefer making my own. I don’t trust a whole lot of dining out places any more. I like to know what I am actually eating and that it is made in sanitary conditions.
Oh I ‘m so hungry and this looks absolutely delish! I love Sesame Chicken!!
I love Asian food. And I love trying new recipes. This one looks good and easy. My favorite kind of recipe.
Sesame is one of my favorite flavors ever!
This looks both easy and delicious. I want to try this.
This looks so amazing and I love this kind of food. And it is really healthy.
This looks really great except for the water chestnuts.
This looks simple and delicous! Plus a new way to get my picky son to maybe try something new!
Oh yum, we’ve been looking for alternatives to Chinese take out. We’ve been trying to cook more meals at home.
This looks amazing!, I love all the vegetables you added to this and I have been eating more rice and less potatoes, so this is a great recipe for me, thanks 🙂
I don’t eat meat so maybe lightly saute, or fry gently, firm tofu instead. Looks good and having Jasmine rice with this would be fabulous.
I haven’t tried the McCormick spices but we do enjoy a good stir fry at home. I used to have a recipe with white wine but it has long since been lost.
Oh that looks really good! I am always looking for easier meals to cook at home! We would love that one!
