Huli Huli Chicken Sandwich


Transforming the delightful flavors of Huli Huli chicken into a sandwich is a culinary adventure that promises not just a meal, but a vibrant escapade into Hawaiian flavors right from your kitchen.


This sandwich isn’t just about stacking ingredients between bread; it’s about layering flavors that echo the essence of a luau. With each component, from the charred pineapple to the homemade Huli Huli glaze, this sandwich brings a piece of the islands to your plate in a way that’s both novel and nostalgically delicious.



Starting with the base, the homemade Shokupan offers a soft, slightly sweet canvas that perfectly complements the rich, tangy glaze of the Huli Huli chicken. The charred pineapple introduces a smoky sweetness that contrasts beautifully with the savory depth of the chicken, marinated and cooked with a recipe that pays homage to traditional Hawaiian barbecue.



The Asian slaw—crisp, tangy, and brightly seasoned with mirin, soy sauce, and a hint of sriracha—adds not just crunch but also a burst of freshness that cuts through the richness of the other components.


If you’re in the mood for something that’s a total departure from your typical sandwich fare, give this Huli Huli chicken sandwich a try. It’s a culinary project that’s sure to entertain, educate, and delight your taste buds.


Chickenlicious...


Perfect for a weekend lunch or as a show-stopping centerpiece at your next gathering, this sandwich is more than food; it’s a conversation starter. So, gather your ingredients, and let’s bring some Hawaiian sunshine to your kitchen with a sandwich that’s as fun to make as it is to eat!
