How to Make Los Angeles Chicken Banh Mi Sliders
Step 1: Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, Cajun seasoning, and brown sugar. Add the chicken and toss until fully coated. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes while you prep the veggies.
Step 2: Prepare the Veggie Marinade
In a separate bowl, mix shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, and rice wine vinegar. Toss well and set aside to lightly pickle.
Step 3: Make the Sriracha Mayo
Combine mayonnaise and sriracha in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Step 4: Grill the Chicken
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for about 5 to 7 minutes per side, until fully cooked and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and slice into thin strips.
Step 5: Assemble the Sliders
Slice open your King’s Hawaiian slider buns. Spread sriracha mayo on the bottom bun, add sliced chicken, top with marinated veggies, cucumber slices, and fresh cilantro. Close with the top bun and serve.
Serving Tips
- Add sliced jalapeños for extra heat
