Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup tahini
  • 6 tablespoons water
  • 4 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic grated or minced
  • 1 squeeze honey
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste

  • 4 skewers Honey Sriracha Chicken prepared separately

  • Garnish: sprinkle each bowl with sliced scallions, a small handful of cilantro leaves, and toasted sesame seeds.
  • Finish and serve: drizzle tahini-lime dressing over each bowl and serve extra dressing on the side.
