Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Swirl olive oil into a large sauté pan set over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot, lay chicken, skin-side down, into pan. Lower heat to medium and cook until skin is well browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer to oven and bake, skin-side up, until chicken is cooked through, 8-10 minutes.
Meanwhile, make vinaigrette: Add ginger, shallot, mustard, vinegar, egg yolk, soy sauce and maple syrup to a blender and pulse to combine. With motor running, add grapeseed oil in a slow, steady stream until emulsified.
Halve fennel lengthwise and, using a mandoline or sharp knife, thinly shave crosswise.
Place fennel, bok choy, basil and cilantro in a large bowl and toss slaw with enough vinaigrette to coat. Serve immediately with chicken
