Instructions

Chop the Chips
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel).

Pop the chips onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with half the black sesame seeds and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Bread the Chicken
2

Meanwhile, sandwich each chicken breast between two pieces of baking paper. Pop onto a board, then give it a bash with a rolling pin or the bottom of a saucepan until it’s 1-2 cm thick. Season with salt and pepper.

Season the chicken, then dip into the egg and then the breadcrumbs, ensuring it's completely coated. 

Transfer to a clean plate. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging and discard any excess egg

Time to Fry
3

Pop a large frying pan on high heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. TIP: You want the oil to be hot so the chicken fries properly - heat for 2-3 mins before you add the chicken.

Once hot, carefully lay the chicken into the pan and fry until golden brown, 2-3 mins on each side. Adjust the heat if necessary.

Transfer the chicken to a baking tray and bake on the middle shelf of your oven until cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle. Discard the oil from the chicken pan.

Prep the Slaw
4

Meanwhile, trim the baby gem and reserve 2 whole baby gem leaves per person. Thinly slice the rest. Halve the lime. 

In a large bowl, combine the sambal and a third of the mayo. Squeeze in half the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper and stir until well combined. 

Add the coleslaw mix and sliced baby gem to the bowl and stir well to coat. Set aside.

Finishing Touches
5

In a small bowl, combine the remaining mayo with the sriracha.

Halve the burger buns.

When the chicken and wedges have 2 mins left, pop the buns into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.

Assemble and Serve
6

When everything's ready, cut your fried chicken into strips.

Spread the sriracha mayo over the bun bases and lids. Top the bases with the fried chicken pieces and the whole baby gem leaves. Close with the bun lids.

Serve your craft burgers with the sesame chips and slaw alongside.

Enjoy!
