Cooking Steps
Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with pepper and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, add the water to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes. Stir in rice wine vinegar (for the rice) and a pinch of sugar.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
When rice has 10 minutes remaining, finely chop garlic. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken thigh, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 10-14 minutes. In the final minute of cook time, add garlic and the soy sauce, turning to coat. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Trim and thinly slice snow peas lengthways. In a large bowl, combine snow peas, shredded cabbage mix and Japanese dressing. Season to taste.
In a small bowl, combine miso paste, the honey and rice wine vinegar (for the sauce). Return frying pan to medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add miso-honey mixture and cook until bubbling, 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add cooked sweet potato, tossing gently to coat.
Divide rice between bowls. Top with chicken, miso sweet potato and slaw. Sprinkle with mixed sesame seeds and pickled ginger. Drizzle with sesame dressing to serve.
