Sesame Ground Chicken

I had a pound of ground chicken from Butcher Box wondering what to do for supper tonight. I found a great quick recipe which we will do again. I might add some green beans or frozen/fresh peas next time.

I only had a pound so the recipe below is half of their 2 pound published recipe.
