Sticky Sweet & Sour Tamarind Chicken
with Garlic Rice & Asian Greens
A saucy chicken with rice needs an extra large bowl because more is more for this dish. With a sweet and sour tamarind sauce you’re going to need an A-team of veggies and chicken to match it. A fluffy rice, fragranced with garlic, can help fill up the bowl and cradle the chicken and veggies.

Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water and a generous pinch of salt to pan and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove 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, thinly slice fresh chilli (if using). Trim green beans. Roughly chop Asian greens. • Cut chicken breast into bite-sized chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine chicken, sweet soy seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook green beans, tossing, until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Add Asian greens and remaining garlic, and cook until tender and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Season. • Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
• Return the frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine soy sauce mix, tamarind paste (see ingredients), sweet chilli sauce and the brown sugar.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low, then add tamarind sauce mixture and cook until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.
• Divide garlic rice and Asian greens between bowls. • Top with sticky sweet and sour tamarind chicken. • Garnish with crispy shallots and fresh chilli to serve. Enjoy!
