Cooking Steps
• Slice cucumber into thin batons. • In a small bowl, combine rice wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. • Add cucumber to pickling liquid. Set aside for 10-15 minutes, tossing occasionally.
• Meanwhile, grate carrot. Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing, until browned, 5-6 minutes. • In the last minute, add teriyaki sauce and the brown sugar, stirring, until well combined. Remove from heat.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• Meanwhile, place gua bao buns on a plate with a small splash of water (just a small splash so they stay fluffy!). • Cover with cling wrap or a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Set aside for 1 minute.
• Drain pickled cucumber. • Uncover bao, then gently halve buns. • Spread each bun with mayonnaise, then fill with teriyaki chicken, some pickled cucumber, carrot and torn coriander. Enjoy!
