Step-by-Step Instructions 👩‍🍳

Step 1: Prepare the chicken

Heat olive oil in a pan. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add the shredded chicken, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until well-seasoned.

Step 2: Make the Dynamite sauce

In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, sriracha, honey, garlic powder, and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Step 3: Combine filling

Add the cooked chicken to the sauce and mix well until everything is evenly coated in that spicy-creamy goodness.

Step 4: Assemble the buns

Slice off the tops of the buns and hollow out a little space in the center. Fill each bun with the chicken mixture and top generously with shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 5: Bake

Place buns on a tray and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and lightly golden.

Step 6: Serve and enjoy

Garnish with parsley or chives and serve warm.
