In a small saucepan combine all sauce ingredients except the sesame seeds.

Stir in sesame seeds. Remove from heat; set aside.
To Prepare Poultry:
If desired, remove skin from chicken.
Rinse chicken; pat dry.
To Cook by Direct Grill Method:
Place chicken, bone side up, on the grill rack of an uncovered grill.
Grill directly over medium coals for 35 to 45 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink, turning once halfway through grilling time and brushing frequently with sauce the last 10 minutes of grilling.
Place the pepper and zucchini beside the chicken perpendicular to the wires on the grill rack for the last 10 minutes of grilling, brushing occasionally with sauce.
To Cook by Indirect Grill Method:
In a covered grill arrange preheated coals around a drip pan.
Test for medium heat above the pan.
Place chicken, bone side down, on the grill rack over the drip pan.
Cover and grill for 50 to 60 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink, brushing frequently with sauce the last 10 minutes of grilling.
Place the pepper and zucchini beside the chicken, perpendicular to the wires on the grill rack for the last 15
