Cooking Steps

Toast sesame seeds
1
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add sesame seeds to the dry pan. Toast for 2-4 min, stirring often, until fragrant. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn.) Transfer to a plate. 
Make slaw
2
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice green onions.
  • Cut radishes into 1/4-inch half-moons. 
  • To a medium bowl, add mayo, rice wine vinegar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar, half the soy sauce and half the sesame oil. Whisk to combine.
  • Add coleslaw mix and radishes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. 
Make glaze and cook chicken

  • To another medium bowl, add Honey-Garlic Sauce, remaining soy sauce, remaining sesame oil and gochujang. Whisk to combine. Set aside. 
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Heat the same pan (from step 1) over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Pan-fry for 6-7 min on one side until golden. Flip, then cover and continue cooking for 6-7 min, until cooked through.** 
  • Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
  • Carefully wipe out the pan.
Pan-fry falafel

  • Reheat the pan over medium-high. Add 1 tbsp oil, then falafel. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches for 4 servings if needed, using 1 tbsp oil per batch.)
  • Lightly smash falafel into smaller pieces, then pan-fry for 4-8 min, tossing occasionally, until browned.
  • Remove from heat, add spicy-sweet glaze, then toss to coat. 
Warm tortillas
