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 garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add basmati rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. • Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don’t peek!

Get prepped
2

• While the rice is cooking, halve any thicker stalks of baby broccoli (see ingredients) lengthways and cut into thirds. • Roughly chop Asian greens. Thinly slice carrot into rounds.

Season the chicken
3

• Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. • In a large bowl, add sweet soy seasoning and chicken and toss to coat.

Cook the chicken
4

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • Cook chicken, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside.

Cook the veggies
5

• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook baby broccoli and carrot with a splash of water, tossing, until just tender, 3-4 minutes. • Add Asian greens and cook until just wilted, 2-3 minutes. • In the last minute of cook time, add ginger paste, sweet chilli sauce (see ingredients) and the soy sauce and toss to coat.

Serve up
6

• Season garlic rice with pepper. • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with sweet soy chicken and ginger veggies. • Garnish with crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
