Ingredients
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
3 tablespoons fish sauce
1 apple, cut into matchsticks
1 carrot, cut into matchsticks
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced kale
1/3 cup almond butter
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Sriracha (Asian chile sauce)
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 11/2 pounds)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Kosher salt
4 hero rolls, split and toasted
Torn fresh basil and mint, for topping
Directions
- Make the slaw: Warm the rice vinegar and fish sauce in the microwave. Combine the apple and carrot in a large bowl and add the vinegar mixture. Stir in the kale and let stand 15 minutes.
- Make the almond mayonnaise: Mix the almond butter, mayonnaise and Sriracha in a small bowl; set aside.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high. Coat the chicken with the vegetable oil, soy sauce and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Grill until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice.
- Spread almond mayonnaise on both sides of the rolls. Add the chicken and top with the slaw and basil and mint.
