INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

This infused oil brings all the deep, earthy flavors of red cabbage without the vibrant color you might expect. Sadly, the cabbage didn’t pass along its gorgeous purple hue, but the flavor more than makes up for it! This oil is infused with the natural taste of fresh red cabbage, giving your dishes a unique savory kick that you won’t find in any standard cooking oil.

How to serve
This oil is perfect for drizzling over roasted veggies, tossing into fresh salads, or giving grains like quinoa or rice a savory boost. Brush it onto grilled meats or veggies for a subtle but delicious flavor layer. While the cabbage’s color didn’t come through, its distinct earthy taste does, making this oil a versatile addition to your kitchen. Try using it as a finishing oil for soups or even mixing it into dips for a fun twist!

How to store
To keep your red cabbage-infused oil fresh, store it in a sealed bottle in a cool, dark place like your fridge. It should last up to 1-2 weeks.

  • Total Time: 70 min
  • Yield: 1 cup / 250 ml 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • blender
  • medium-sized saucepan
  • whisk
  • a bowl which the medium saucepan fits into
  • 2 medium-sized bowls
  • 2 fine sieves
  • oil bottle
  • ice cubes
  • coffee filter

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 150 grams red cabbage
  • 250 milliliters rapeseed oil

Instructions

  1. Cut the cabbage into chunks. Put the pieces into the blender. Pour in the oil. Blend on the highest setting until only tiny pieces of the cabbage are visible.
  2. Pour the mixture from the blender into a medium-sized pot and heat it over medium heat to a temperature of about 104°C (220°F), and maintain this temperature for the next 35 minutes. Stir occasionally, making sure the temperature remains steady and nothing gets burned.
  3. Prepare a bowl large enough to fit a medium-sized pot, and fill it with cold water and a handful of ice cubes. Also, hang a fine mesh strainer over one medium-sized bowl and another fine mesh strainer, with a coffee filter inside it, over another medium-sized bowl.
  4. Now, place the pot in the ice water and stir to cool the oil quickly. Once the oil is almost cold, remove the pot from the water.
  5. Pour the oil into the prepared fine mesh strainer to catch the coarse particles.
  6. Then, pour the oil into the second fine mesh strainer, which is equipped with the coffee filter, to catch the remaining finer particles.
  7. Allow the oil to drip through for about half an hour or maybe less depending on how many remaining particles are in the coffee filter. Once all the oil has passed through the coffee filter, transfer the collected amount of oil into an oil bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 weeks.

This dish is the perfect mix of comfort and fresh, bold flavors. Juicy chicken strips with a golden, crispy coating are served alongside a creamy, dreamy peanut coconut sauce that has just the right balance of nuttiness and sweetness. Paired with a zesty edamame slaw, this combo is perfect for when you want something that feels indulgent but light and fresh at the same time. It’s all about that crunch, that sauce, and that fresh bite!

How to serve
These crispy chicken strips are best served hot and fresh out of the pan with the sauce on the side or drizzled on top – your call!

  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 30 min
  • Yield: 3 1x

Description

Recommended Equipment

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • salad bowl
  • two small bowls
  • sieve
  • small pot with lid
  • three shallow bowls for breading
  • large pan

Ingredients

Units Scale

CRISPY CHICKEN

  • 400 grams chicken breast
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 4 tbsp panko
  • 4 tbsp bread crumbs
  • clarified butter for frying

PEANUT COCONUT SAUCE

  • 3 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • juice of 1/2 a lemon
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 piece of ginger as the same size as the garlic clove
  • 1 tsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp sweet & sour sauce
  • 100 milliliters coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes

SLAW

  • 150 grams red cabbage
  • 150 grams white cabbage
  • 100 grams edamame
  • 1 spring onion
  • 2 tbsp cilantro

SLAW DRESSING

  • 1/2 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/4 tsp ginger powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • juice of 1/2 a lemon

Instructions

  1. First, we’ll prepare the slaw. Slice the red and white cabbage into thin strips, wash them thoroughly, dry them, and put them in a salad bowl. Place the frozen edamame in a heatproof bowl and pour boiling water over them. Let them sit for 5 minutes. In the meantime, slice the spring onions into thin rings and pick the cilantro leaves off the stems, chopping them finely. Add both to the cabbage. Drain the edamame and add them to the slaw as well. Mix everything well and set it aside.
  2. Next, grab a small bowl to prepare the dressing for the salad. Mix rice vinegar, honey, soy sauce, lime juice, sesame seeds, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Don’t pour the dressing over the slaw just yet—set it aside for now.
  3. Now, let’s make the peanut coconut sauce. Peel and grate the garlic and ginger, then sauté them in some sesame oil in a small pot. Add the following ingredients: soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sweet & sour sauce, lime juice, fish sauce, chili, and coconut milk. Stir everything well. If the sauce is too thick, just thin it out with a little water. Keep it warm on very low heat with the lid on.
  4. Set up a breading station with flour, egg, and a mix of panko and breadcrumbs. Coat the chicken in flour, shake off the excess, then dip it in the egg, making sure it’s well-covered. Finally, press it into the panko and breadcrumb mixture, ensuring the breading sticks well on all sides. Fry the chicken in a large pan with a bit of clarified butter over medium heat until crispy and cooked through. Slice the chicken into strips.
  5. Pour the dressing over the slaw and mix everything well. Distribute the salad onto deep plates, then drizzle the peanut coconut sauce over it. Finally, place the crispy chicken strips on top of the sauce. Optionally, garnish with sesame seeds and spring onions.

Description

Recommended Equipment

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • medium-sized bowl
  • plastic wrap
  • meat mallet
  • two plates
  • three shallow dishes for breading
  • large frying pan
  • measuring spoons

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 slices white toast
  • 40 grams kewpie mayo
  • 40 grams tonkatsu sauce
  • 250 grams chicken breast
  • 1.5 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp panko bread crumbs
  • 3 tbsp regular bread crumbs
  • 50 grams clarified butter
  • 150 grams red cabbage
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4 butter lettuce leaves

Instructions

  • Cut the red cabbage into eighths and finely shred or slice one eighth. Place it in a medium-sized bowl and marinate with rice vinegar, sesame oil, and salt. Set aside.
  • Detach 4 leaves from the head of lettuce and wash thoroughly. Pat dry and set aside.
  • Halve the chicken breast lengthwise, then cut each half again crosswise. Place each piece between two layers of plastic wrap and pound to about 0.5 cm / 0.2″ thickness using a meat mallet. Lay the flattened meat on a plate.
  • Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes or bowls. Fill the first dish with 1.5 heaped tablespoons of wheat flour, crack an egg into the second dish and whisk it. In the third dish, mix together 3 heaped tablespoons each of panko and breadcrumbs. Coat each piece of chicken first in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in the egg, and finally, press into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it’s well coated on all sides. Place the breaded pieces side by side on a plate.
  • Heat clarified butter in a large frying pan and fry the breaded chicken pieces on both sides until crispy, about 3 minutes per side or until cooked through. Let the meat drain on kitchen paper.
  • Place half of the slices of bread flat on a clean work surface, then place a lettuce leaf on each. Top each with a piece of cooked chicken, followed by a zigzag pattern of Kewpie mayo and Tonkatsu sauce. Add about 2 tablespoons of red cabbage salad on top of the sauces. Finally, top the sandwiches with another slice of bread. If desired, trim the edges all around and cut the sandwiches in half in the middle with a sharp knife.
