Utensils
•Pan with Lid
•Pot with Lid
Instructions
1
- Pour 300ml cold salted water (double for 4p) 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 with the lid and cook for 12 mins.
- Once cooked, remove the pot from the heat.
- Keep covered for another 12 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
2
- Halve the corn widthways.
- Trim the carrot, then halve lengthways (no need to peel). Chop into 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.
- Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice the scallion.
3
- Place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the carrot and corn until tender, 4-5 mins.
- Reduce the heat to medium-high, add a splash of water, cover and cook for 3-4 mins. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Remove from the pan, cover and set aside.
4
- Wipe and return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the chicken and season with salt and pepper.
- Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging used to keep it fresh.
5
- When the chicken has 1 min left to cook, add the Thai spice and lemongrass paste to the pan.
- Then stir through the sweet chilli sauce, hoisin sauce, ketchup and 25ml water (double for 4p). Cook for 30 secs.
- Add another splash of water to loosen the sauce if you feel it's too thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
6
- Divide the rice between plates.
- Serve the sweet chilli chicken and pan-fried veg alongside.
- Sprinkle over the sliced scallion.
