Cooking Steps

1
1

• Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water (for the rice), a pinch of salt 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 all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

• Meanwhile, boil the kettle. • Thinly slice carrot into sticks. Roughly chop Asian greens. Thinly slice fresh chilli and spring onion (reserve white ends!). • Place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks.

• Heat a large saucepan over high heat. Add the boiling water (3 cups for 2 people / 6 cups for 4 people), chicken-style stock powder, chicken and white ends of the spring onion. • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, until the chicken is cooked through, 8-12 minutes.

TIP: The chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink in the middle. TIP: Divide between two pans if you're saucepan is getting crowded.

• When chicken has 5 minutes remaining, add carrot, Asian greens and a splash of water to a microwave-safe bowl, then cover with a damp paper towel. • Microwave veggies on high until just tender, 2-3 minutes. • Drain, then return to bowl. Season to taste and cover to keep warm.

• In a small heatproof bowl, combine ginger paste, the sesame oil and remaining garlic. Microwave in 10 second bursts, until fragrant. • Season with salt and pepper then add soy sauce mix and chopped spring onion. Stir to combine.
