This will help to give it a signature golden glow. Even the rice has an extra kick of flavour from the garlic. This dinner really is a dream come true!

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water and a generous pinch of salt to the pan and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine sweet soy seasoning, the remaining garlic and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken and toss to combine.
• When the rice has 10 minutes remaining, add cornflour and the plain flour to the bowl of chicken. Toss to coat. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to cover the base. When oil is hot, dust off any excess flour from chicken and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of sesame oil. • Cook Asian stir-fry mix and ginger paste until tender and fragrant, 2-3 minutes.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the ginger paste starts to spatter!
• Remove pan from heat, then add oyster sauce, the vinegar and a splash of water. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
• Divide garlic rice between bowls. • Top with oyster sauce veggies and Asian popcorn chicken. • Drizzle with sesame dressing to serve. Enjoy!
