Instructions
• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into rounds. • In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. • Add cucumber to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover cucumber. Set aside.
TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!
• While cucumber is pickling, drain sweetcorn. • In a small bowl, combine the sweet chilli sauce, ginger paste and soy sauce. • Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine cornflour, chicken and a generous pinch of salt and pepper.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Add sweet chilli-ginger sauce mixture, tossing to coat, 1 minute.
• While chicken is cooking, in a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, a drizzle of olive oil, a splash of pickling liquid and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Add sweetcorn and slaw mix, tossing to combine.
• Drain cucumber. Divide garlic rice, sweet chilli and ginger chicken, slaw and pickled cucumber between bowls. • Spoon over any sauce from the pan. Top with crushed peanuts to serve. Enjoy!
