Chicken bao buns are a popular Chinese street food consisting of fluffy steamed buns filled with tender and flavorful chicken filling. To make the bao buns, the dough is made with flour, yeast, sugar, and water and left to rise before being divided into small portions and rolled into rounds.
For the chicken filling, boneless chicken is marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic, then stir-fried with mushrooms, onions, and other vegetables until tender and fragrant.
Once the buns and filling are ready, the buns are steamed until puffy and soft, then filled with the chicken mixture and topped with sliced green onions and a drizzle of hoisin sauce. The result is a delicious and satisfying snack or meal with a perfect balance of savory and sweet flavors.
