Asian cuisine isn’t shy about using big, bold and outrageous flavours. This sticky chicken is no exception - we've taken fried chicken and teamed it with cheesy corn over nutty rice and a radish slaw for an absolutely vibrant feast.

• In a medium saucepan, add the water and bring to the boil over high heat. • 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. • When the rice is done, stir through crushed peanuts. Season to taste. Cover to keep warm and set aside.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don’t peek!
• Meanwhile, preheat the grill to high. • Thinly slice spring onion and radish. • Drain sweetcorn. • Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine chicken, ginger paste, a generous pinch of salt and a drizzle of vinegar. Set aside.
• In a baking dish, combine sweetcorn, mayonnaise, half the spring onion and a pinch of sugar. • Season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle over shredded Cheddar cheese. • Grill until the cheese has melted, 7-8 minutes.
TIP: Grills cook fast, so keep an eye on the cheesy corn!
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to cover the base. • To the bowl with chicken, add cornflour and the plain flour and toss to coat. • When oil is hot, dust off any excess flour from chicken, then cook chicken in batches, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. • Add Korean stir-fry sauce and toss chicken to coat.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• While the chicken is cooking, combine radish, slaw mix and Japanese dressing in a second medium bowl and toss to coat. Season to taste.
• Bring everything to the table to serve. Top cheesy corn with remaining spring onion. • Help yourself to sticky Korean chicken, cheesy corn, Asian radish slaw and peanut rice. • Garnish slaw with crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
