General Tso’s Chicken Sandwich with Broccoli Slaw

I turned a classic takeout dinner into this General Tso's chicken sandwich that’s simple to make at home. We like spicy foods, so the sauce uses a good amount of heat, but you can adjust the sauce for your family's taste buds. —Julie Peterson, Crofton, Maryland

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoons hoisin sauce
• 3 cups broccoli coleslaw mix
• 1/2 cup sliced almonds
• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2-in. strips
• 4 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
• 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 to 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• Sesame seeds
• 4 brioche hamburger buns, split

Directions

• In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, honey, vinegar and hoisin sauce. Stir in coleslaw mix and almonds; refrigerate until serving.
• Preheat air fryer to 400°. Toss chicken with cornstarch, salt and pepper. In batches, arrange chicken in a single layer on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until lightly browned and chicken is no longer pink, 4-5 minutes on each side.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic and pepper flakes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Add cooked chicken; toss to coat.
• Spoon chicken on bun bottoms; top with coleslaw mix and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Replace tops.
