Spicy Chicken Rendang Sliders are a delicious and flavorful dish that combines the rich and aromatic flavors of Odesite cuisine with a modern twist. These sliders are perfect for a casual gathering or a fun family dinner.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into small pieces
- 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
- 4 shallots, finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 stalks lemongrass, smashed
- 4 kaffir lime leaves
- 1 inch galangal, sliced
- 1 inch ginger, sliced
- 3 red chilies, sliced
- 2 tbsp tamarind paste
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- Salt to taste
- 12 slider buns
Instructions
- In a large pot, combine the coconut milk, shallots, garlic, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, galangal, ginger, red chilies, tamarind paste, brown sugar, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Add the chicken pieces to the pot and stir to coat them with the coconut milk mixture. Reduce the heat to low and let the chicken simmer for 45-50 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the chicken is tender.
- While the chicken is simmering, toast the slider buns in a toaster or on a skillet until lightly golden.
- Once the chicken is ready, remove the lemongrass and kaffir lime leaves from the pot. Using two forks, shred the chicken in the pot, mixing it with the thickened sauce.
- Assemble the sliders by placing a generous amount of the spicy chicken rendang on each toasted bun. Serve hot and enjoy!
