Preparation method
Step 1: Place three deep plates next to each other and fill one with the flour, the other with the beaten eggs & panang curry and the last one with panko. Cut the chicken breast into strips of about 1 centimeter wide. Take the chicken strips and follow the standard breading procedure.
Step 2: Before frying the chicken, make the coleslaw. Finely chop the red cabbage and the red onion into half rings, mix with the carrot and other ingredients.
Step 3: Put a pan on the fire with a good layer of oil (about 1.5 centimeters). Bake the chicken for about 7 minutes until golden brown, turning halfway through.
Step 4: Cut open the bao buns and spread with a little green sweet chili sauce. Then place two chicken breast strips per bao bun with coleslaw on top. Garnish with coriander.
