Cooking Steps

1
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut sweet potato into fries. • Place fries and corn on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with mixed sesame seeds and season with salt. Toss to coat. • Bake until fries are tender and corn is golden, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is getting crowded, divide the fries and corn between two trays.

• Meanwhile, slice cucumber into thick half-moons. • In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, sesame oil blend, the vinegar, the soy sauce and a generous pinch of salt and sugar. Set aside.

• Place chicken breast between two sheets of baking paper. Pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until an even thickness, about 1cm. • In a shallow bowl, combine the plain flour, the egg and a generous pinch of salt. Whisk to combine. • In a second shallow bowl, place panko breadcrumbs. • Dip chicken breast into egg mixture to coat, then into breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.

• In a large frying pan, heat enough olive oil to coat the base over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook crumbed chicken, in batches, until just golden, 1-2 minutes each side (it will finish cooking in step 5!). • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

TIP: Add extra oil between batches if needed so the chicken doesn't stick to the pan!

• Halve bake-at-home burger buns. Place burger buns and pan-fried chicken on a second lined oven tray. • Top chicken with Cheddar cheese. • Bake until chicken is cooked through, the cheese is melted and buns are heated through, 3-5 minutes. • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine slaw mix and garlic aioli. Season to taste.

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

• Top each bun with some slaw and chicken. Drizzle with Sichuan garlic paste. • Divide Korean fried chicken burgers and sweet potato fries between plates. • Serve with corn, sesame cucumber and aioli. Enjoy!

TIP: If you can't fit all the chicken in the buns, slice any remaining chicken and serve on the side!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many loved the bold, tantalising flavours, though some found it mild and added sriracha or chilli for extra heat.
  • Ease of prep: While delicious, several noted it was time-consuming with many components. Some suggested simplifying or prepping ahead.
  • Suggestions: For crispier results, try air frying the sweet potato chips. Consider adding kimchi or pickles for more authentic Korean flavour.
  • Leftovers: Generous portions meant tasty leftovers for many, with some reporting the flavours held up well even when cold.
