PEANUT CHICKEN WITH CABBAGE SLAW
Our take on takeout -- with ginger, soy, and sesame in the mix -- is better tasting and better for you. No chopsticks needed. Fix a double batch tonight, and bring some for lunch tomorrow; its good hot or cold.

Steps:
- In a small skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium. Season chicken with salt and pepper; cook until browned and opaque throughout, about 6 minutes per side.
- Meanwhile, make slaw: In a medium bowl, whisk 3 teaspoons vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil. Add cabbage, scallions, carrot, and ginger; toss to combine. Set aside.
- Make sauce: In a small bowl, stir together peanut butter, soy sauce, and remaining teaspoon vinegar; if necessary, thin with water.
- Mound slaw on a serving plate. Thinly slice chicken crosswise on the diagonal. Place alongside slaw; spoon a little sauce on the plate, and serve remaining sauce on the side.
Tips:
- For crispy chicken, use a combination of flour, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. The cornstarch helps to create a crispy coating.
- Make sure the chicken is evenly coated with the flour mixture before frying. This will help to ensure that the chicken is cooked evenly.
- Fry the chicken in hot oil. This will help to create a crispy coating and prevent the chicken from becoming greasy.
- Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the chicken. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
- Once the chicken is cooked, drain it on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
- For the cabbage slaw, use a combination of green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots. This will create a colorful and flavorful slaw.
- Use a light dressing for the cabbage slaw. This will help to keep the slaw light and refreshing.
- Serve the cabbage slaw immediately or chill it for later.
Conclusion:
Crispy chicken and potatoes with cabbage slaw is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is crispy and juicy, the potatoes are tender and flavorful, and the cabbage slaw is light and refreshing. This meal is sure to please everyone at your table.
