Cooking Steps
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Wrap tortillas in paper towels.
- Microwave for 1 min, until tortillas are warm and flexible. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas.)
- Divide tortillas between plates.
- Thinly slice chicken.
- Top tortillas with coleslaw, chicken and saucy falafel.
- Sprinkle green onions and any remaining sesame seeds over top.
