Instructions

Fry the Chicken
1
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Once hot, fry the chicken, 8-10 mins. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
Slaw Time
2
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the coleslaw mix, rice vinegar, sambal paste, olive oil and sugar (see pantry for both).
  • Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. 
  • Crush the peanuts in the unopened sachet.
Let's Glaze
3
  • Once the chicken is cooked, stir the gochujang paste and honey (see pantry) into the pan.
  • Remove from the heat. 
  • Microwave the tortillas for 850W: 50 secs / 750W: 1 min. If you don't have a microwave, just enjoy them cold.

  • Transfer the tortillas to your serving plates.
  • Spread on the mayo (see pantry).
  • Top with some rocket, then the chicken and sambal slaw. 
  • Sprinkle over the peanuts to finish. 

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many loved the tasty, spicy kick, though some found it too hot; consider adding a cooling element like sour cream.
  • Ease of prep: Praised as quick, simple, and easy to make, with minimal preparation required.
  • Suggestions: Add lime for extra zing; consider serving with potato wedges or rice to make it more filling.
  • Portions: Several noted the chicken portion was small; consider bulking up with extra vegetables or sides.
  • Spice level: Adjust sambal paste amount to taste; some found it spicier than expected for a 'mild' dish.
