A long time Chinese favourite, bao are steamed buns that are usually filled with succulent meat. In this recipe, crispy chicken and Korean style bao helps to create tasty little sliders. Steaming the buns gives them an irresistible soft bite which contrasts the crunchy cucumber. A colourful slaw provides a healthy addition to this dinner. Enjoy #youplateit.

Step-by-step instructions

Step 1

Crumb Chicken:

Preheat oven to 200°C. In a large bowl mix 3 TBS hoisin & soy and 2 tsp sriracha (depending on how hot you like, add a little and taste marinade). Slice chicken into 2 cm strips and place into bowl with marinade. Place panko in another bowl and line a tray with baking paper. Working a few at a time, put chicken strips into panko, press to make stick and then place on tray. Once oven is hot, bake for 12 minutes.

Step 2

Pickle Cucumber:

In medium bowl mix sugar, ½ tsp salt, 2 TBS rice vinegar. Thinly slice cucumber, add to bowl and combine.

Step 3

Dress Coleslaw:

In a large bowl mix 2 TBS oil, remaining rice vinegar, 1 TBS hoisin & soy and a pinch of salt to make dressing. Add Asian slaw and mix.

Step 4

Warm Buns:

Remove paper backing from bao buns. Place 3 buns at a time on a large plate, cover with cling film and microwave for 1 minute. Repeat with remaining buns.

Step 5

You Plate It:

Spread a little of the remaining hoisin & soy and mayonnaise onto each bun. Divide chicken between buns. Add 2 slices of cucumber, a spoon full of slaw and a drizzle of sriracha. Serve with remaining slaw on the side. Enjoy!
