Bang bang chicken

    Ingredients:

    • 2 tbsp white vinegar
    • 1 tsp sugar
    • 6 shallots, thinly shredded
    • 2 carrots, finely sliced
    • 1/2 telegraph cucumber, de-seeded and finely sliced
    • 2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
    • 1 tbsp sesame seeds

    Sauce

    • 3/4 cup peanut butter
    • 4 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
    • 2 tsp sesame oil
    • 3/4 cup boiling water

    Method:

    To make the sauce, whisk all of the ingredients together and set aside.

    In a bowl, whisk the vinegar and sugar together.

    Place the vegetables into the bowl and toss until well coated.

    Using tongs, put the vegetables on a serving platter and lay the chicken on top.

    Drizzle with the sauce and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.

    Notes:

    • It is best if the vegetables in this recipe are finely sliced. An easy way to do this is to use a vegetable peeler to make ribbons and slice them lengthways.
    • I have seen some Bang bang chicken recipes that include vermicelli noodles with the salad. These would be a great addition if you were making it a main meal.
    • The sauce will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator.
