Cooking Steps

Make the Rice
1
  • Rinse the rice to remove excess starch. Pour 300ml cold salted water (per 2P) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
  • Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
  • Once boiling, lower the heat to medium, cover and cook for 10 mins.
  • Remove from the heat. Keep covered for 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
  • Once everything is ready, stir the black garlic paste and a knob of butter through the rice. 
Get Prepped
2
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Trim the leek and halve lengthways. Thinly slice widthways.
  • Place a pan over medium heat with a knob of butter and a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, add the bacon, leek and chicken. Cook until softened, stirring occasionally, 4-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Cook bacon thoroughly.

TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging used to keep it fresh.

Simmer the Sauce
3
  • Add the white wine stock, creme fraiche and Worcester sauce.
  • Cover and cook until the chicken is cooked and the sauce is thickened, 6-8 mins.
  • Add the peas for the final 1-2 mins to allow warm through.
  • Add a splash of water to loosen the sauce if necessary. Taste and season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Finish and Serve
4
  • Divide the black garlic rice between plates.
  • Spoon the creamy bacon, chicken and leeks over the top.
  • Sprinkle with chopped parsley.
