SLOW COOKER ASIAN CHICKEN TACOS WITH BROCCOLI SLAW
A slow cooker allows the chicken to get so tender, it just shreds apart while soaking up the delicious marinade. These are a perfect combination of sweet, tangy, and spicy in a tacolicious bite! I use a microplane rasp grater for the ginger and lime. Makes 4 soft taco-sized portions or 8 fajita-sized portions! Enjoy!

FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH WITH SRIRACHA AIOLI AND ASIAN SLAW
Steps:
- For the chicken: Break down the chickens, removing all bones. Remove the tenders. Pound the breasts and thighs separately. Sprinkle all of the chicken pieces with salt.
- Preheat the oven to 220 degrees F. In a food processor, puree the chicken tenders with the cream, garlic, egg white, a touch of soy sauce and some yuzu kosho until smooth. Using this mixture, glue the thigh and breast together like a sandwich. Cook the chicken for 30 minutes. Cool the chicken in the refrigerator.
- Preheat a deep fryer with canola oil until a deep-frying thermometer inserted into the oil reaches 350 degrees F.
- Beat the milk and eggs together for an egg wash. Dust the chicken in the seasoned flour, then dip in the egg wash and coat with the panko. Deep fry until golden brown and warm on the inside. Keep the oil hot for later use.
- For the aioli: Put the Sriracha, fish sauce, gochujang, sesame oil, vinegar, yuzu kosho, yuzo and garlic in a blender. Blend while slowly adding the canola oil until thick. Transfer to a squirt bottle.
- For the slaw: Place the carrots, cabbage and scallions in a bowl along with the peanuts. Marinate with the fish sauce, ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, yuzu juice and yuzu kosho.
- For the chips: Peel and cut the potatoes using a mandoline into gaufrettes. Soak in cold water. Fry the potatoes golden brown, and then season with kosher salt.
- Layer the aioli, fried chicken, some cilantro leaves, papaya slices and a drizzle of sesame seed oil on the buns, and serve with the chips on the side.
ASIAN CHICKEN BURGER WITH SPICY LEMONGRASS MAYO AND PICKLED ASIAN SLAW
Steps:
- For the spicy lemongrass mayo: Mix together the mayonnaise, chili sauce, lime zest and juice and lemongrass in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. For the Asian chicken burger: Combine the chicken, hoisin, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic and scallions in a large bowl. Mix together and form into 4 equal patties about 1/2-inch thick and 4 inches wide. This patty will be a bit wetter than your average patty because of the sauces and flavor in there. Sprinkle each side of the patties generously with salt and pepper. Create a small well in the center of each patty, using your thumb. Cook your patties on the griddle over medium heat until golden brown on each side and 160 degrees F, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Because of the sugar content in these patties, they can burn easily so watch your heat. Let rest 5 minutes. Place your buns on the griddle and toast them. For assembling: Place some of the spicy lemongrass mayo on each side of the buns. Add the chicken patties and top with the Pickled Asian Slaw. Finish with the top bun and serve with additional slaw and mayo on the side.
- Add the rice wine vinegar to a mixing bowl and whisk in the sesame oil and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Add the ginger, cabbage and peppers and toss to coat with the dressing. Adjust the seasoning and let sit 20 minutes to let the flavors meld together before serving. Yield: 2 cups.

ASIAN STYLE CHICKEN RAMEN DINNER COLE SLAW
There are many different variations of this salad out there, of course. My version differs in that the dressing is creamy, and not sweet. The recipe makes 4 main-dish portions, or 8-10 side dish portions. It's great as a dinner entrée, and fast and easy to make! Very popular as a take-along potluck or picnic item, too.

Steps:
- Sauté the chicken pieces in olive and sesame oils until browned. Drain and set aside.
- In a very large bowl, stir together the dressing ingredients well.
- Add the browned chicken and coleslaw mix or shredded cabbage to the dressing and toss well to coat. Set aside.
- Into a bowl, break up the ramen noodles into smaller pieces. In a saucepan, heat the amount of water according to package directions to a brisk boil and add the seasoning packets. Add the bowl of noodles all at once to the boiling seasoned water and cook, stirring occasionally, for 90 seconds. (You want the noodles slightly cooked, but not as limp as ramen will get if you cook it fully.) When noodles have cooked for 90 seconds, remove from heat and immediately drain.
- Add the semi-cooked drained ramen noodles to the coleslaw and toss again to combine well.
- Place salad in a large container and chill in refrigerator for at least 2 hours (it helps to cool and chill them if you stir the slaw a couple of times during chilling).
- Makes 4 entrée-size servings. You can always stretch this salad by adding additional meat or packages of ramen! We've even added more semi-cooked ramen the next day to the leftovers. :).
- Note: for folks who like their salad spicy, the addition of crushed red pepper is nice, or a bit of Tabasco in the dressing. A bit of minced fresh sweet basil is also nice in this recipe. My husband sometimes adds sliced black olives to his serving. I also use about a 1/2 cup of slivered almonds, because I love their taste and texture in the salad.
- Note #2: if you don't have yogurt, you can use sour cream instead, but yogurt is preferred.
- Note #3: if taking to a picnic or potluck and you're concerned about the mayo in it, you might consider using Vegenaise instead of regular mayo, which has no eggs in it. Tastes just like old fashioned mayo, but lower fat and no eggs. See http://www.followyourheart.com for more info.

Steps:
- For the spicy mango BBQ sauce: Place the ketchup, mango, agave, soy sauce, shallots, Sriracha, vinegar, mustard and garlic in a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and cool 5 minutes. Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt.

- For the chicken and chorizo meatballs: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onions, Anaheim chiles, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir to combine and allow to cook, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, 2 minutes, then pour the mixture into a small bowl to cool slightly and set aside. Wipe the pan down with a paper towel and set aside to use again.
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside. To a food processor fitted with a steel blade, add the panko, parsley, thyme and onion-garlic mixture. Pulse about 5 times and pour into a mixing bowl. To the same bowl, add the ground chicken, chorizo, eggs, 3 tablespoons water, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and with clean hands, combine well.
- Place the wiped-down skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Using a small ice cream scoop, make 30 to 34 even-size meatballs. Place about 8 meatballs in the hot oil and brown them all over, about 1 minute per side, then transfer them to the lined baking sheet. Continue with the remaining meatballs in the same manner. Transfer the meatballs to the oven to finish cooking, 15 minutes.
- Spoon some BBQ sauce onto each of 4 plates, then divide the meatballs among them. Add the cilantro, peanuts and sesame seeds to the slaw and stir again, then divide among the 4 plates and serve immediately.
