ASIAN FRIED CHICKEN AND PHO SLAW

Steps:

• For the chicken: Combine the buttermilk, chili paste, onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon ginger and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Add the chicken and turn to coat; let sit.
• Mix the all-purpose flour, rice flour, semolina flour, cornstarch, curry powder, the remaining tablespoon ground ginger and salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl. Set aside.
• For the sauce: In a small pot, slowly heat the chili paste, hoisin and brown sugar until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat and let stand at room temperature.
• For the pho slaw: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, chili paste, coconut milk, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, ginger, lime juice and salt and pepper to taste. Whisk until blended.
• In a large bowl, mix together the bok choy, scallions, carrot, bean sprouts and red cabbage and toss together with your hands. Add the dressing and toss. Fold the noodles into the slaw. Set aside.
• Fill a large Dutch oven halfway with oil and slowly bring it up to 375 degrees F. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture. Shake off the excess flour and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden on the outside and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Serve the chicken with the sauce on the side, or toss the chicken in the sauce. Serve with the pho slaw.

CHICKEN AIOLI SANDWICH

Steps:

• Combine the ginger, garlic, green onions, chile flakes, and peanut oil. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and place in a small roasting pan or on a baking sheet. Roast the chicken for 15 to 20 minutes, or until cooked through. Cut the chicken crosswise into very thin slices.
• Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
• Slice the rolls horizontally and place on a baking sheet with the top half cut-side down and the bottom half with cut-side up. Place 1 slice of provolone on the bottom half of each roll. Cook until the cheese is melted and the rolls are lightly toasted, about 3 minutes.
• Place 1/4 of the chicken on top of the melted cheese. Top with romaine lettuce, tomato, and red onions. Spread some of the Aioli on the top half of the roll and place the roll on top of the sandwich.
• In a food processor or blender, combine the garlic, basil, egg yolks, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard and process to combine. With the machine running, add the oil in a slow, steady stream until it is all added and the mixture is emulsified. Add the lemon juice and check the seasoning.

FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICHES WITH TANGY COLESLAW AND SPICY MAYO

Steps:

• For the tangy slaw: Whisk together the vinegar, sugar, celery salt and pepper in a small bowl until combined. Stir in the mayo until incorporated. Add the scallions and green and red cabbage and toss to coat. Set aside, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours in advance.
• For the spicy mayo: Whisk together the mayonnaise and hot sauce in a small bowl. Taste and add more hot sauce depending on how spicy you like it. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to a week.
• For the fried chicken: Mix the yogurt, 1 teaspoon of the paprika, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl. Add the chicken cutlets and coat evenly. Let the chicken sit in the marinade for about 15 minutes at room temperature or up to 2 hours refrigerated.
• Once the chicken has marinated, pour about 2 inches of oil in a deep 10-inch cast-iron skillet and place over medium-high until it registers 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer. Line a sheet pan with paper towels.
• While the oil heats, whisk together the flour, onion powder, remaining 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the black pepper in a small shallow dish. Remove the cutlets from the yogurt, allowing any excess yogurt to drip off, and dredge the cutlets in the flour mixture.
• Carefully add the dredged chicken to the hot oil and fry until the chicken is deeply golden brown on both sides and cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes, flipping the cutlet about halfway through the cooking time. Drain on the paper towels and immediately sprinkle the chicken with more salt to taste.
• Toast the burger buns until golden brown. Spread 1 tablespoon of the mayo over the top and bottom of each bun. Place a piece of fried chicken on each bottom bun, top that with slices of tomato and some slaw and cover with the top buns. Serve immediately.
