Chicken satay with mixed vegetables and rice

Step 1: Rice

Always wash rice before cooking, drain off excess water with sieve.

 

Gas Hob (100g rice with 150g water)

  • Bring to boil on medium to high heat. (Take off the lid if the water starts to overspill.)
  • Turn down to low, cover with lid and cook until water is fully absorbed. (approximately 10 minutes)
  • Turn the gas off and rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

 

Microwave (100g rice with 200g water)

  • Microwave on high for 10 to 15 minutes with no lid
  • Take out of the microwave, cover with lid and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 2: Chicken (while the rice is resting)
  • Add a little oil to the wok/frying pan and place over high heat.
  • Cook chicken to 80% done (golden brown outside and still a little soft in the middle)
  • Take chicken out of the pan and set aside.

(For a crispy version, dust the chicken with a little flour (any type) and cook in a traditional fryer at 180 degrees C for 1 minute or follow the instructions on an air fryer to achieve the same result)


Step 3: Vegetables and finish the whole dish
  • Add a little oil to the same wok or frying pan over medium to high heat.
  • Add in vegetables and cook until they have softened.
  • Put the chicken back in with the vegetables, then add sauce and cook until chicken is fully cooked.
