Ginger chicken slaw in hawaiian buns

Shredded chicken tossed with quick slaw and ginger makes a light, bright filling for those sweet hawaiian buns. The slight tang of vinegar cuts the richness of the mayo, and the whole thing comes together while water boils. Dinner for two in twenty minutes.

Serves 2. 20 minutes, 16 at the stove.
