This blissful bowl rivals what you'd get at your local poke joint. Better yet, you can make it in a flash thanks to our slow-cooked chicken breast, spiked with creamy sesame dressing; simply shred it and forget it while the kumara and rice cook.

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Peel, then cut kumara into bite-sized chunks. • Place kumara on a lined oven tray. Sprinkle with mixed sesame seeds and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and toss to coat. • Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the water 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 the 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!
• While the rice is cooking, thinly slice cucumber into half-moons. Finely chop garlic.
• When the kumara has 10 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook diced chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Wipe out the frying pan and return to medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add miso paste (see ingredients) and the honey and cook, stirring, until bubbling, 1 minute. • Remove from heat, add chicken and toss to coat.
• In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage mix, cucumber, Japanese dressing and the sesame oil. Season to taste. • Divide rice between bowls. Top with miso-honey chicken, sesame roasted kumara and slaw. • Top with garlic aioli and crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
