  1. BUFFALO ROAST SWEET POTATO

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the sweet potato pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, half of the buffalo spice, and some seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.

  2. MAKE THE SPICY PATTIES

    Place the chicken mince in a bowl. Combine with the remaining buffalo spice to taste and lightly season. Wet your hands slightly to prevent the mince from sticking to them and shape into 2 patties of about 2cm thick. Set aside until time to fry.

  3. RANCH DRESSING

    Place a small pot over a medium heat with 1 tbsp of oil. When hot, fry the One For All Rub for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, then remove the pot from the heat. Add in the ranch dressing and three-quarters of the chopped chives. Whisk together with the juice of 1 lemon wedge and some seasoning. Once well combined, pop on a lid and set aside to keep warm until serving.

  4. FRY THOSE BUNLESS BABIES!

    When the sweet potato has 10 minutes remaining, place a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the chicken patties for 4-5 minutes per side until golden, gently pressing them down with a spatula to ensure they cook all the way through. Remove from the heat on completion and allow to rest in the pan for 2 minutes before serving.

  5. CREAMY RANCH SLAW

    Place the cabbage and carrot in a bowl and pour in half of the ranch dressing. Season to taste and toss until coated.

  6. FILL YOUR BOWL!

    Dish up the steamy roast sweet potato next to some ranch slaw. Scatter over the shredded lettuce and top with the juicy chicken patties. Garnish with the lemon zest to taste and sprinkle over the remaining chopped chives. Cover in drizzles of the remaining ranch dressing (to your preference) and serve with a lemon wedge on the side. Yeehaw!
