Asian Sticky Chicken

Thank you to Stephanie for this recipe, it was incredible, and I just wish that I had made more!  The only two modifications that I made to the following recipe were that I added the sesame seeds to the flour dredge so they adhered to the chicken and that I used bone in thighs (add 15 more minutes to the cooking time).

Lay some parchment paper on a jelly roll pan (cookie sheet) and scoop the rice onto the pan. Using a wet spoon, spread out and flatten the rice into an even layer.
