Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 12 tbsp sriracha (adjust to heat preference)
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar or lime juice
  • 12 Hawaiian dinner rolls
  • Optional: shredded lettuce or thin cucumber slices
  • Optional: sliced green onions or chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Pat the chicken pieces dry and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
  3. Coat each chicken piece by dipping first in flour, then eggs, then panko, pressing gently to adhere.
  4. Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a frying pan to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Fry chicken pieces in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (internal temp 165°F/74°C).
  6. Drain fried chicken on paper towels and let cool slightly.
  7. Whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and rice vinegar until smooth.
  8. Toss the fried chicken gently in the Bang Bang sauce until evenly coated.
  9. Slice Hawaiian rolls horizontally, keeping the bottom half intact.
  10. Place sauced chicken pieces on each roll; add optional lettuce or cucumber slices.
  11. Garnish with green onions or cilantro and serve immediately.

Notes

Keep oil temperature steady at 350°F to avoid greasy chicken. Fry in batches to prevent overcrowding. If sauce is too thick, add a teaspoon of water to thin. For a healthier option, bake chicken at 400°F for 20 minutes, flipping halfway. Store chicken and rolls separately and reheat chicken in oven to maintain crispiness.
