1.25 cup
water

• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter and a dash of olive oil over medium heat.
• Cook hainanese paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add jasmine rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil.
• 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!

• Meanwhile, trim baby broccoli (see ingredients), halving any thicker stalks lengthways.
• Thinly slice cucumber into rounds.
• Thinly slice spring onion (reserving the white ends) and fresh chilli (if using).

• Half-fill a large saucepan with water, add white ends of spring onion and a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat.
• Add chicken breast, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 10-14 minutes.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.

• While chicken is poaching, in a medium microwave-safe bowl, add baby broccoli and a splash of water, then cover with a damp paper towel.
• Microwave baby broccoli on high until just tender, 2-4 minutes.
• Drain broccoli, then return to the bowl and cover to keep warm.

• In a small microwave-safe bowl, microwave ginger & lemongrass paste and a generous drizzle of olive oil until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add remaining spring onion, season to taste with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
• In a small bowl, combine soy sauce mix and a pinch of sugar.
• In a second small bowl, add sriracha.
TIP: Cover the bowl with a lid or cling wrap as the paste might spatter!

• Using tongs, remove the chicken from the saucepan. Transfer to a chopping board and thinly slice.
• Divide fragrant rice, baby broccoli and fresh cucumber between plates. Top with Hainanese chicken, then garnish with fresh chilli.
• Serve with traditional three sauces. Enjoy!
