Bánh Mì Bánh Mì is a delightful Vietnamese snack that features a crispy baguette filled with Halal grilled chicken, fresh vegetables, and aromatic herbs. This dish is perfect for a quick and savory bite that balances textures and flavors beautifully.

Ingredients

• Baguette - 1 large (about 250g)
• Halal chicken breast - 200g
• Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Honey - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Cucumber - 1/2, thinly sliced
• Carrot - 1 small, julienned
• Cilantro - 1/4 cup, chopped
• Mayonnaise - 2 tablespoons
• Sriracha sauce - 1 tablespoon (optional for spice)
• Lime - 1, cut into wedges

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and black pepper to create a marinade for the chicken.
2. Slice the Halal chicken breast into thin strips and marinate for 15 minutes.
3. While the chicken is marinating, prepare the vegetables: slice the cucumber, julienne the carrot, and chop the cilantro.
4. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken strips for about 5-7 minutes, or until fully cooked and slightly charred.
5. While the chicken is cooking, slice the baguette lengthwise without cutting all the way through, creating a pocket.
6. Spread mayonnaise on the inside of the baguette and add the cooked chicken strips.
7. Layer the sliced cucumber, julienned carrot, and chopped cilantro on top of the chicken.
8. If desired, drizzle Sriracha sauce over the fillings for added spice.
9. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
