Bang Bang Chicken - Rasa Malaysia
Easy and quick Bang Bang Chicken is a 30-minute recipe and a must-try
for summer. Refreshing cucumber topped with tender chicken and evenly
coated with a tangy, savory sesame sauce that is utterly delicious and
satisfying to enjoy.
Ingredients
1 lb (500 grams) chicken thighs skinless, boneless
2 Japanese cucumbers shredded
Sauce
1 clove garlic minced or ground
1 teaspoon sesame paste
2 tablespoon water
2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 pinch Sichuan pepper powder
2 tablespoons chili oil
Instructions
1. In a saucepan, add the chicken thighs and fill it up with enough water to cover the meat. Bring
to a boil and cook the chicken for approximately 10 minutes, or until the meat reaches an
internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
2. Remove the chicken from the saucepan and let it cool slightly. Cut the meat into bite-sized
pieces or shred it, based on your preference. Then set aside.
3. Whisk together garlic, sesame paste, water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, Sichuan pepper
powder, and chili oil in a small bowl and set aside. Adjust the amount of chili oil based on
your desired level of spiciness.
4. Take a serving dish and arrange a bed of shredded cucumbers at the bottom. Place the
cooked chicken pieces on top of the shredded cucumbers. Generously pour the prepared
sauce over the chicken, ensuring it is evenly coated. Optionally, garnish with chopped green
onions or cilantro for added freshness and visual appeal.
Notes
Tips:
1. You can use either chicken thigh or chicken breast in this recipe. However, I recommend
using chicken thighs since the meat remains tender and juicy after cooking.
2. Make sure the meat is fully cooked. Bring the water to a boil and cook the chicken for about
10 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
3. Choose either Japanese cucumber or Persian cucumber for the best taste.
