Place the egg and cornstarch in a large bowl and whisk until foamy. Transfer the chicken pieces to the egg mixture and toss to coat. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, syrup, brown sugar substitute, rice wine vinegar, garlic cloves, and ketchup. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until hot. Remove the chicken pieces from the egg mixture using a slotted spoon, allowing the excess batter to drip off.
Place the chicken in the skillet and cook over medium-high heat for 7 minutes, stirring often, until chicken is browned and cooked thru. Transfer the cooked chicken from the skillet to a bowl and set aside.
Pour the sesame sauce into the hot skillet and whisk, making sure to scrape up any browned bits of chicken cooked onto the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced and thickened.
Return the chicken to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce. Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds prior to serving.
