Sesame Oil Chicken

Sesame oil chicken is a warming, fragrant staple of Chinese and Taiwanese postpartum recovery, made by braising chicken with generous amounts of sesame oil and ginger — often with a splash of rice wine. It's deeply nourishing and safe to enjoy while breastfeeding. The sesame oil provides healthy fats and has long been cherished for supporting postpartum recovery.

Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
