Sticky Popcorn Chicken & Garlic Rice

with Sesame Veggies

Difficulty: 1/3
Asian

Tonight’s chicken is really ‘popping off’ (please forgive the pun). A touch of sweet and a zap of salty and you’ve got chicken that will be popping with flavour (sorry we couldn’t help it). Fragrant garlic rice helps to absorb the sauces and sesame veggies. It’s bound to be a pop-ular dish (okay we’re done now). *This recipe is under 650kcal per serving.*

• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook half the garlic paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt 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 all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes. • Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. In a medium bowl, combine chicken, cornflour (see ingredients) and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. • In a small bowl, combine oyster sauce, the soy sauce, honey and water (for the sauce). TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
