Chinese Roast Chicken Buns With Scallion And Spicy Hoisin Sauce

Tender meat — often pork, though here, it’s chicken — sweet, garlicky hoisin sauce, cooling cucumber, and scallion all tucked into soft, pillowy steamed dough; no wonder everyone seems crazy for Chinese buns these days. Packaged buns can be purchased at Asian markets if you don’t have time to make and steam your own dough. Adapted from “A Bird in the Oven and Then Some” by Mindy Fox.
