Add the chicken to the pan and continue to stir-fry until the chicken in nearly cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Bring the contents to a boil until a sauce-like consistency is reached, about 2 to 3 minutes.Add the sauce to the pan, and continue to stir-fry until all ingredients are well coated.
Remove from the heat, plate on a platter and garnish with the sesame seeds and cilantro. Serve while hot with steamed brown rice.
