With the College Football National Championship Game airing tonight and since the Super Bowl is around the corner, I thought I’d repost this yummy recipe for Touchdown Asian Sliders featuring King’s Hawaiian Rolls (my fave)!  I love King’s Hawaiian because they’re so versatile, sweet and soft.  I love them so much that I entered a contest to be the King’s Hawaiian Culinary Explorer for the chance to go to Hawaii to develop recipes for them.  Please click here to watch my video and vote for me!  Once you register, you can vote daily until January 19th and please leave a comment!

You will totally score with these tender and juicy burgers layered with delicious Asian flavors from the ginger, garlic, hoisin and oyster sauce and are topped with a crunchy Asian slaw.    I like to buy premium hoisin sauce from the gourmet section at Cost Plus World Market. 

Ingredients

Slaw dressing:

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons canola oil

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon dark brown sugar

1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Asian slaw:

2 green onions, finely chopped (white and green parts)

6 oz. shredded red cabbage

6 oz. shredded green cabbage

1 pound ground beef, pork or turkey

1/4 cup finely chopped scallions (white parts only)

1 teaspoon fresh minced ginger

1/2 teaspoon Asian chili sauce, preferably sriracha

8-10 slider rolls of King’s Hawaiian rolls

1/4 mayo

2 teaspoons srircha
