Sriracha Veggie Slaw Recipes

PAK BULGOGI (KOREAN BBQ CHICKEN) TACOS WITH SPICY SLAW AND SRIRACHA AIOLI

Steps:

• Make the spicy slaw: Stir the vinegar, sugar, sambal oelek and salt together in a large bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Add the red cabbage, mix well, cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or (preferably) overnight.
• Marinate the chicken: Whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, gochujang, ginger and sesame oil in a large bowl. Add the chicken strips and mix thoroughly. Cover the bowl and marinate for at least 1 hour or (preferably) overnight.
• Make the sriracha aioli: Mix the mayonnaise and sriracha until combined. Taste for spiciness and add more sriracha if needed.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over high heat, add the chicken and saute, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Warm the tortillas in a griddle or wrapped in damp paper towels in the microwave. Place the warmed tortillas on plates (double them if using store-bought tortillas). Divide the sauteed chicken among the tortillas, top with sriracha aioli, and then some slaw.

SRIRACHA SLAW

Steps:

• To make the dressing, in a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, lime juice, pineapple juice, Sriracha, garlic, fish sauce, ginger paste, and sugar. Cover and store in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it.
• To make the slaw, in a large bowl, mix together the napa and red cabbages, carrots, bell peppers, jalapeño, green onions, cilantro, and mint. Add the dressing and toss to mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Garnish with the basil and lime slices. Serve immediately to retain crunch.
• For a more traditional picnic and barbecue coleslaw, make a dressing with 1/2 cup Sriracha Aïoli (page 16), 1/4 cup cider vinegar, and 2 tablespoons sugar. Combine with the slaw ingredients, using 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley instead of the cilantro and mint. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Feel free to opt for 2 (16-ounce) bags of store-bought coleslaw mix in place of cutting the cabbages and carrots yourself.
