Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium boneless skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound total)
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 4 French rolls, split
  • 1/4 cup radish sprouts
  • 1/2 cup broccoli slaw mix (broccoli slaw mix)
  • 1/4 cup chopped peanuts (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Rinse chicken; pat dry. Combine sesame oil and crushed red pepper; brush over chicken.
  • Grill chicken on the lightly greased rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium heat for 12 to 15 minutes or until tender and no longer pink, turning once.
  • Meanwhile, for sauce, in a small saucepan,* stir together sugar, peanut butter, soy sauce, oil, garlic, and 2 tablespoons water. Heat on grill rack until sugar is dissolved, stirring frequently. For the last 1 minute of grilling, place split rolls on the grill rack to toast.
  • To serve, place cooked chicken breasts on bottom halves of rolls; spoon on sauce and top with radish sprouts, broccoli, peanuts (if desired), and roll tops. Makes 4 servings.
  • *Note: The heat from the grill will blacken the outside of the saucepan, so use an old one or a small cast-iron skillet.
