Cooking Steps

1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Trim roots or top of radishes, if needed. Thinly slice radishes.
  • To a small pot, add radishes, half the vinegar, 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water and 2 tsp (4 tsp) sugar. Season with salt.
  • Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until sugar dissolves.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Transfer radishes, including pickling liquid, to a medium bowl. Place in the fridge to cool.
2
  • Meanwhile, peel, then mince or grate ginger.
  • Halve cucumber lengthwise. Cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • In a medium bowl, combine gochujang, soy sauce, ginger and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together half the mayo, remaining vinegar and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. 
  • Add cucumbers and coleslaw, then toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
3
  • To a shallow dish, add panko.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
  • Cover each chicken breast with plastic wrap. Using a mallet, rolling pin or heavy-bottomed pan, carefully pound each chicken breast until 1/2-inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Coat chicken all over with remaining mayo.
  • Working with one chicken breast at a time, press both sides into panko to coat completely.
4
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium. 
  • When hot, add 1/3 cup ( 2/3 cup) oil, then chicken. (NOTE: For 4 servings, cook chicken in 2 batches, removing any bits from the oil with a slotted spoon before adding more oil for the second batch.) Shallow fry for 3-4 min per side, until golden and cooked through.** (NOTE: Reduce heat to medium-low if chicken starts to brown too fast.)
  • Transfer chicken to a wire rack, then sprinkle a pinch of salt over top. Set aside to rest, 3-5 min.
5
  • Just before serving, wrap tortillas in paper towels.
  • Microwave for 30 sec-1 min, until tortillas are warm and flexible. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas!)
6
  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • Drain pickled radishes and discard pickling liquid.
  • Divide coleslaw between tortillas. Top with chicken.
  • Spoon sauce over chicken. 
  • Sprinkle pickled radishes over top.
