THMD3: Bang Bang Chicken

Sharing is caring!

Skinnymixer’s Bang Bang Chicken features in the Fast section of the cookbook The Healthy Mix Dinners 3. 

The Bang Bang Chicken is a cookbook exclusive recipe…

If you haven’t heard of Bang Bang Chicken before, it’s an American Chinese dish that became popular on social media. I’m not a huge fan of viral food trends, but when Grant made this I was immediately sold. The sauce is lusciously creamy, tangy and sweet. Paired with the Japanese Slaw this may possibly be my favourite combination in the Dinners 3 cookbook. 

We prepare the sauce in the Thermomix and cook the chicken in the air fryer for the ultimate, easy dinner!

What you will need:

• chicken breast
• fresh lime juice
• garlic powder
• garlic
• ground white pepper
• honey
• whole egg mayonnaise – Use a good-quality lighter tasting mayonnaise. I like the Thomy or S&W Whole Egg Mayonnaise. Or you can make your own using a light-tasting oil with this Creamy Mayonnaise recipe.
• olive oil (or a light spray of oil)
• onion powder
• rice wine vinegar – see the variations in the recipe for dietary options
• salt
• sesame oil
• soy sauce, tamari or coconut aminos
• Sriracha – commercially available or you can make your own using with this Sriracha recipe.
• sweet paprika
