CHINESE CHICKEN BURGERS WITH RAINBOW SESAME SLAW-CONTEST WINNER!



Chinese Chicken Burgers With Rainbow Sesame Slaw-Contest Winner! image

This is Brigitte Nguyen's $50,000 Grand Prize recipe in the 2009 National Chicken Cooking Contest put on by the National Chicken Council. Geared to big appetites, it could easily be turned into eight burgers rather than six. Cook them on the grill or in a frying pan if you prefer. As a shortcut, you could substitute 2 cups of already-grated cabbage for the julienned vegetables in the slaw. Look for Sriracha chile sauce on the Asian aisle of the supermarket. Any type of Asian chile sauce may be substituted.

GRILLED SLAW WITH GINGER AND SESAME



Grilled Slaw With Ginger and Sesame image

Napa makes an excellent cabbage for grilling. Its elongated shape provides greater surface area to char - and thus smoke - over a hot fire than a round cabbage. Its leaves are less tightly packed than conventional cabbage, allowing for deep penetration of the smoke flavor. Also known as Chinese cabbage, napa cabbage is native to China and pairs well with Asian seasonings, such as sesame oil, rice vinegar and ginger. To notch up the heat, add a spoonful of Asian chile paste.

1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons rice vinegar, plus more to taste
2 tablespoons black or toasted white sesame seeds (optional)
1 teaspoon Chinese or Vietnamese chile paste (optional)

Steps:

  • Light your grill, building a hot fire and set it up for direct grilling. Brush or scrape the grill grate clean and grease it with a tightly folded paper towel dipped in canola oil.
  • Meanwhile, cut the cabbage lengthwise into quarters through the core. Cut the pear in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Lightly brush the cabbage, pear and scallions all over with 2 to 3 tablespoons sesame oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Grill the cabbage until darkly charred on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Char just the outside; the inside should remain cool, firm and crisp. Transfer to a sheet pan to cool.
  • Grill the cut sides of the pear until grill-marked, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Grill the scallions, bell pepper and jalapeños until grill-marked, turning halfway through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the sheet pan. Let the vegetables cool to room temperature.
  • Make the dressing: In a large bowl, mash together the sugar, ginger and garlic with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add the rice vinegar and whisk until the salt and sugar are dissolved. Whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons sesame oil, plus the sesame seeds and chile paste, if using.
  • Cut away and discard the core of each cabbage quarter, then thinly slice the charred cooled napa cabbage crosswise, and add it to the dressing. Julienne the pear, bell pepper and jalapeño and add them to the slaw, discarding the bell pepper and jalapeño seeds. Thinly slice the scallions crosswise, discarding the root ends, and add them as well.
  • Taste the slaw for seasoning, adding more vinegar, sugar and salt to taste. Refrigerate until serving and serve within a couple hours of mixing.

Tips:

  • For a crispier slaw, use a mandoline or sharp knife to thinly slice the cabbage.
  • Add a variety of vegetables to your slaw, such as carrots, celery, or broccoli.
  • Use a light hand when dressing the slaw, as too much dressing can make it soggy.
  • Let the slaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving, to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Serve the slaw as a side dish to grilled meats or fish, or as a topping for tacos or sandwiches.
