Preparation
Roast the sweet potato fries
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Cut the sweet potatoes into fries.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil and S&P.
- Roast, flipping halfway, 22 to 24 min., until browned and tender.
Prepare & cook the chicken
- Meanwhile, pat the chicken dry; halve horizontally without cutting all the way through.
- Open the chicken and place between 2 pieces of plastic wrap; lightly pound to an even thickness (about ½ inch or less); season with the spices and S&P.
- In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the chicken* and cook, partially covered, 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through.
- Add the chili sauce; toss to coat.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, remove the stems from the mushrooms; finely chop the stems and caps.
- Peel and mince the ginger.
- Thinly slice the scallions crosswise, separating the white bottoms and green tops.
- Halve and core the jalapeño lengthwise; small-dice.
- In a medium bowl, whisk 2 eggs (double for 4 portions) until smooth; season with S&P.
Make the omelette
- In a medium pan (non-stick if possible), heat a drizzle of oil on medium.
- Add the ginger and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant.
- Add the mushrooms, jalapeño, white bottoms of the scallions and S&P.
- Sauté, 3 to 4 min., until softened.
- Using a rubber spatula, add the eggs and cook, stirring constantly, swirling the pan occasionally, 3 to 4 min., until the eggs are almost set.
- Without stirring, tip the pan until the eggs are fully set.
- Transfer to a cutting board.
Toast the buns
- Arrange the buns, cut-sides up, on a second lined sheet pan.
- Toast in the oven, 2 to 3 min., until golden brown.
Finish & serve
- Halve the omelette.
- Divide the bun bottoms between your plates.
- Top each bun bottom with the omelette, chicken and a bun top.
- Serve the sweet potato fries on the side and garnish with the green tops of the scallions. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking poultry to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
