Fry the chicken pieces until they are crispy and golden brown, then remove them from the skillet.

In a bowl, mix together corn starch, water, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, and tomato ketchup to create the sauce.

In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté until fragrant.

Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet and bring to a simmer.

Add the fried chicken back into the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce.

Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
