Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 yellow onion
- 2 tsps fresh ginger grated
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 lb chicken
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 carrot
- 1 jalapeno
- ½ cup frozen corn
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 2 tsp soy sauce

Instructions
- 1
Peel and chop the onion.

Then add oil to a pan over a medium flame and add in the onions. Saute onions for about 10 minutes, stirring often to keep them from burning.
- 3
While the onion is cooking, dice the chicken into small pieces (smaller than bite-size). Move the onion to the side of the pan when it’s slightly translucent and place chicken in the middle of pan and let it cook - about 5 minutes, then, using a spatula, flip chicken pieces over and cook another 5 minutes.

Dice the bell pepper, carrot, jalapeno - be sure to carefully remove the jalapeno seeds in case you don’t want your peanut chicken filling to be spicy. Also make sure you wash your hands after handling the jalapeno - just like you would after handling the chicken.
- 5
Then add in the ginger and garlic and mix well.
- 6
Then add in the bell pepper, carrot, jalapeno corn, lime juice, soy sauce and saute about 3 minutes or so.
- 7
Add in the peanut butter and stir well so it is well incorporated. Remove the pan from heat and let filling come to room temperature.
- 8
If using biscuit dough, roll out each biscuit on a floured surface.
- 9
Place 2-3 tablespoons of filling in it.
- 10
Brush the circumference of the biscuit with egg wash and then gather in the sides, sealing them tightly with your fingers.
- 11
Flip them over and place them on a baking tray with the folded side facing down and smooth side facing up.
- 12
Brush tops with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- 13
When all biscuits are filled, pre-heat oven to 375 and bake buns for 20-25 minutes.

Remove from oven and enjoy warm or let cool and pack for a picnic or hike!
