Cooking Steps

Cook the garlic rice
1

• 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 the 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!

Get prepped
2

• Trim green beans. Roughly chop Asian greens. Thinly slice fresh chilli (if using). • Cut chicken thigh into bite-sized chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine chicken, sweet soy seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil.

Cook the veggies
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook green beans, tossing, until tender, 4-7 minutes. • Add Asian greens and remaining garlic and cook until tender and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste. • Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

Cook the chicken
4

• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook prawns, tossing, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. • Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing, until browned, 5-6 minutes. • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine tamarind paste (see ingredients), sweet chilli sauce and the brown sugar and soy sauce. TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside.

Add the tamarind sauce
5

• Reduce heat to medium-low, then add tamarind sauce mixture to chicken and cook until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.

Serve up
6

• Divide garlic rice and Asian greens between bowls. Top with sticky sweet and sour tamarind chicken and prawns. • Garnish with crispy shallots and fresh chilli to serve. Enjoy!
