Korean cuisine isn’t shy about using big, bold, and outrageous flavours. Tonight's dish is no exception. It takes a cue from the Asian nation’s famed version of fried chicken, using a sweet, spicy, and savoury sauce to give them major personality. To complete the vibrant array on this plate, we’re adding a crisp slaw salad and a drizzle of creamy mayo.

Finely chop garlic. Drain sweetcorn (see ingredients). Roughly chop salad leaves. Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks. In a medium bowl, combine chicken, garlic, a generous pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Set aside.
Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast mixed sesame seeds, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Return the frying pan to high heat. Cook sweetcorn, tossing, until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are "popping" out.
Add cornflour and the plain flour to the chicken and toss to coat. Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with enough olive oil to cover the base. When the oil is hot, dust off any excess cornflour from chicken, then cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
Wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium heat. Add Korean stir-fry sauce, then return chicken to the pan and cook, stirring, until coated and heated through, 1 minute.
While the chicken is cooking, add salad leaves, slaw mix and a drizzle of rice wine vinegar and olive oil to the charred corn. Season and set aside. In a second small bowl, combine sriracha, mayonnaise and a dash of water. Season to taste.
Divide charred corn slaw between bowls. Top with Korean fried chicken. Sprinkle over toasted sesame seeds. Drizzle with sriracha mayo to serve.
