Instructions

Cook rice & beans

  • In a large pot over high heat add 1 cup jasmine rice and 1 ¼ cup of water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium or medium-low and cover. Simmer for 12 minutes or until water is absorbed. When the rice has 5 minutes of cooking time remaining add 1 cup edamame beans.

Cook chicken

  • Pat 600 g chicken thighs dry. Season with pepper and slice into thin strips. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frypan on high heat. When the pan is smoking, add the chicken and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until golden. Pour the sauce over, stir to combine and cook until sauce thickens.
    Tip: Taste and season with more soy sauce if desired.

To finish

  • Thinly slice ¼ red cabbage. Peel and thinly slice or julienne 2 carrots and 1 cucumber. Roughly chop 1 bunch coriander leaves. Fluff the rice and beans with a fork.
