Cooking Steps

1

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Add jasmine rice and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over high heat until tender, 12-14 minutes. • Drain, rinse with warm water and set aside. • Thinly slice cucumber into half-moons. Juice the orange. • Cut chicken breast strips into 2cm chunks.

2

• In a medium bowl, combine diced chicken, sweet soy seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to cover the base. Meanwhile, add cornflour and the plain flour to the chicken mixture and toss to combine. • When oil is hot, dust off any excess flour from chicken, then cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

3

• Wipe out and return frying pan to medium heat. Toast sesame seeds, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Add orange juice, soy sauce mix and the honey and simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. • In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, mixed salad leaves and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.

4

• Divide jasmine rice between bowls. • Top with chicken and pour over the orange sesame glaze. • Serve with cucumber salad. Enjoy!
