Ingredients

For the katsu curry sauce

For the chicken

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 4 tbsp flour for coating
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 200 g panko breadcrumbs for coating
  • olive oil for baking

To build the burgers

  • 4 brioche buns sliced in half
  • 4 radishes sliced thinly
  • 4-8 lettuce leaves 1-2 leaves per person

Instructions

For The Chicken Katsu

  • Preheat oven to 180ºC.
  • Butterfly the chicken breasts so they cook quickly and evenly.
  • Set up three plates: one with flour, one with beaten egg and one with panko breadcrumbs.
  • Coat each chicken breast in flour, dip into the egg, then press into the panko until fully covered.
  • Place the breaded chicken on a baking tray and lightly coat with olive oil.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, until the panko is golden on one side. Turn over and bake for a few more minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crisp and golden.
  • Warm the Fused Katsu Curry Stir Fry Sauce in a small pan or follow my go to Chicken Katsu From Scratch Recipe

To Build Your Katsu Burgers

  • Add a spoonful of katsu curry sauce to the base of each brioche bun.
  • Add the crispy chicken katsu cutlet. You can slice it first if you prefer.
  • Finish with more katsu curry sauce, extra lettuce and radish, then pop on the brioche bun lid.
  • Serve straight away while the chicken is hot and crispy.

To Serve

  • Serve in brioche buns with salad and fries, or go Japanese-inspired style with freshly steamed rice and vegetables.
  • They’re also gorgeous with sweet potato fries and a quick wasabi mayo on the side.
