Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 4 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 2 cups Cabbage, finely shredded
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Sandwich rolls or buns
- 1 small Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup Cilantro leaves
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours for better flavor.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the slaw. In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded cabbage, julienned carrot, rice vinegar, mayonnaise, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated. Set aside.
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the pan to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Set the cooked chicken aside to rest for 5 minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
Toast the sandwich rolls or buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a thin layer of hoisin sauce (optional) on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with sliced cucumber, a generous portion of the slaw, hoisin chicken slices, and fresh cilantro leaves. Place the top half of the bun on the sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Hoisin Chicken Sandwich!
