Instructions
- Combine stock and wine in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Add 2 teaspoons of sesame oil and blend well. Taste for seasoning; the stock should be quite salty.
- Add the chicken breasts, and simmer slowly for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let the breasts continue to cook in the warm stock. Check frequently; the breasts are ready when they are just past pink on the inside.
- Remove from stock and cut into broad, thin slices. Let cool.
- To prepare the mayonnaise, place egg yolks, mustard and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor. Blend quickly. With the motor running, begin adding the sunflower oil drop by drop. After 1/3 of the oil is added, continue adding in a thin stream and add the remaining 2 teaspoons of sesame oil. Taste for seasoning.
- In a bowl, combine the chicken and the mayonnaise. Reserve in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Place 2 tablespoons sesame seeds in a small roasting pan. Place under a hot broiler for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Garnish chicken with sesame seeds.
- Suggested drink: Hidalalgo Manzanilla, La Gitana
- *RAW EGG WARNING
- Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.
