This hearty lunch or dinner makes use of another of Donna Hay’s recipes: crispy chilli oil. The crispy chilli oil is served as a spread or drizzle in this shallow-fried chicken burger, supplying a lovely touch of heat.
Serves 4
- Combine the Shaoxing, soy sauce and ginger. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- Combine the flour, cornflour and salt in a bowl. Add the chicken and press to coat. Heat 6cm of oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. In batches, cook chicken for 6-7 minutes, turning throughout, until golden and cooked through. Drain on absorbent kitchen paper.
- To assemble, spread the burger buns with mayonnaise. Top with cabbage, coriander, chicken and crispy chilli oil.
