Prepare the Chicken Mixture:
- In a large skillet, combine sugar, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce.
- Cook over medium heat until boiling.
- Add chicken breasts, cooking for 3 to 4 minutes until they are cooked through.
- Remove the skillet from heat and, using a slotted spoon, take out the chicken from the pan juices. Drain the chicken well while reserving the liquid.
-
Prepare the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water, then stir the mixture into the reserved liquid from the skillet.
- Return the skillet to heat and heat the mixture until boiling, stirring constantly until it becomes clear and thickened.

Finish the Chicken Mixture:
- Add water chestnuts and chopped green onions to the skillet with the chicken.
- Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool for 10 minutes.
-
Prepare the Biscuit Dough:
- Separate the biscuit dough into 10 biscuits.
- Press or roll each biscuit into a 4-inch circle.
-
Assemble the Buns:
- Place 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the center of each dough circle.
- Fold the dough over the chicken, covering it completely. Seal the edges well and shape it into balls.
-
Bake:
- Place the filled biscuits seam side down on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Brush the tops of the buns with melted butter and sprinkle them with sesame seeds.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 12 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown.
