Fried Chicken Bao Buns

4.1 from 355 cooks

Pillowy steamed buns fold around crunchy fried chicken, pickles, and a smear of mayonnaise for a handheld take on bao.

Making the bao dough from scratch takes patience through two rises, but steamed buns have a lightness that store-bought versions rarely match. Frying the chicken separately means it stays shatter-crisp right up until it meets the soft bun. Pickles cut through the richness so every bite still feels balanced.
