Instructions

  1. Step 1: Marinate the Chicken
    • Combine milk and 1 tbsp lemon juice for a quick buttermilk substitute; let it sit for 3 minutes.
    • Add soy sauce, honey, sriracha, garlic paste, ginger paste, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
    • Coat the chicken breasts in the marinade and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
  2. Step 2: Coat the Chicken with Frosties
    • Crush Frosties into small bits and set aside in a shallow dish.
    • Whisk the egg with milk in another dish.
    • Remove chicken from the marinade and let excess drip off.
    • Dip chicken into the egg mixture, then press firmly into Frosties to coat evenly.
  3. Step 3: Cook the Chicken
    • Air Fryer: Preheat to 180°C. Spray the basket lightly with oil, place chicken inside, and cook for 12 minutes, flipping halfway. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 75°C.
  4. Step 4: Make the Sweet & Spicy Glaze
    • Heat honey, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic paste, ginger paste, and sesame oil in a saucepan.
    • Stir until the glaze thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Step 5: Assemble the Sandwich
    • Brush the cooked chicken generously with the warm sweet & spicy glaze for a glossy finish.
    • Spread sriracha mayo on both sides of the toasted brioche buns.
    • Add lettuce or slaw to the bottom bun, then place the glazed chicken on top.
    • Sprinkle a handful of crushed Frosties over the glazed chicken for an extra crunch and a hint of sweetness.
    • Finish with pickled jalapeños (if you’re feeling spicy) and crown it with the top bun.

🔥 And THAT’S why a vacuum sealer machine is your BEST mate when you BBQ.

Today’s lunch was the stuff of legend—smoked pulled pork nachos made in just 35 minutes. Yep, you heard that right.

Here’s the trick:

💡 Pulled pork straight from the freezer (still vacuum-sealed) into a saucepan of simmering water. 25 minutes later—perfection.

💥 Hit it with an extra sprinkle of BBQ rub.

💪 Layered up with nachos, BBQ sauce, salsa, and cheese.

🔥 10 mins in the oven for melty goodness.

🌶️ Finished with sriracha drizzle, spring onion, and sour cream dollops.

The kids smashed it in seconds, and honestly, so did I.

Vacuum sealing = game changer. Keeps the flavour, keeps the moisture, keeps you winning.

👉 Wanna know more about reheating vacuum-packed BBQ leftovers like a pro? I’ve got you covered. Check out the full guide here: https://www.smokeandsear.world/foundations-tips/how-to-reheat-vacuum-packed-bbq-food-a-complete-guide/

🎤 So here’s the thing… I was gonna go all healthy with Cornflakes for this chicken sandwich. You know, like everyone else does. But then my local shop let me down. No Cornflakes, just Frosties.

And you know what? I binned the “healthy vibes” right then and there. Frosties it was. Sweet, crunchy, and a little rebellious – just how I like it.

I chucked everything at this sandwich: sweet, spicy, crunchy, glazed goodness… and honestly, maaaaaate, it turned out way better than I could’ve imagined. This thing is an absolute flavour bomb. 💣
