These chicken bites might look cute but they’re hiding a secret weapon. When you dig in, they unleash a very devastingly delicious honey-soy sauce that will blow you away. They are simply unbeatable in our opinion!

1.25 cup

¼ cup

• Add the water (for the rice) to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove pan 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!
Little cooks: Older kids can help add the rice to the saucepan under adult supervision. Be careful, the water is boiling!
• Meanwhile, grate carrot. Drain the sweetcorn. • In a medium bowl, combine diced chicken, garlic paste, a generous pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Set aside. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook sweetcorn until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are “popping” out
• Add cornflour and the plain flour to the chicken and toss to coat. • Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with enough olive oil to cover the base. • When oil is hot, dust off any excess cornflour from chicken, then cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. • Wipe out the frying pan and return to medium heat with the honey-soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and the water (for the sauce). Stir until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. Return chicken to the pan and toss to coat.
• Add carrot, shredded cabbage mix, coconut sweet chilli mayonnaise, the sesame oil and a drizzle of rice wine vinegar to the charred corn. Season and toss to coat. • Divide jasmine rice and creamy corn slaw between bowls. • Top with honey-soy fried chicken bites. Enjoy!
Little cooks: Help combine the ingredients for the slaw.
