Cooking Steps

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
• Cut potato into wedges.
• Place wedges on a lined oven tray. Sprinkle over sesame seeds, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Toss to coat.
• Spread out evenly, then bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

• Meanwhile, slice cucumber into sticks.
• Thinly slice radish and onion (see ingredients).
• Slice lemon into wedges.
• Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.
• In a medium bowl, combine sweet soy seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken, toss to combine.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Cook onion and diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until starting to brown, 4-6 minutes.
• Add sweet chilli sauce, the vinegar and a splash of water, stirring to combine. Cook until reduced, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

• Wipe out frying pan and return to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• When oil is hot, cook chicken, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside.

• Meanwhile, combine mixed salad leaves, radish, cucumber, the sesame oil and a generous squeeze of lemon juice in a large bowl. Season to taste.
• Place bao buns on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel.
• Microwave on high for 1 minute. Set aside to rest for 1 minute.

• Gently halve bao buns and evenly spread with some bacon jam.
• Fill bao buns with sweet-soy chicken and some cucumber salad. Tear over coriander.
• Serve with sesame wedges, mayonnaise and any remaining cucumber salad. Enjoy!
