Thai-Style Sweet Chilli Chicken Breast
with Coconut Rice & Pickled Onion
This meal comes alive with the fantastic flavours of sweet chilli, makrut lime leaves and ginger, plus the richness of coconut rice. We’ve used chicken breast here because it's extra-tasty and remains moist as it cooks.
Unfortunately, this week's baby corn spears were in short supply, so we've replaced them with sweetcorn. Don't worry, the recipe will be just as delicious, just be sure to follow your recipe card!

Cooking Steps
• In a medium saucepan, add coconut milk, the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. • Add basmati rice. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 15 minutes, then remove the pan from heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• While rice is cooking, thinly slice carrot into half-moons. • Drain sweetcorn (see ingredients). • Finely chop garlic.
• In a medium bowl, combine oyster sauce, sweet chilli sauce, ginger-lemongrass paste, the soy sauce and a dash of water. • Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook carrot and sweetcorn, tossing, until softened, 3-4 minutes. • Add baby spinach leaves and garlic and cook until wilted, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken breast, tossing, in batches until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add oyster sauce mixture and cook, stirring, until thickened slightly, 1-2 minutes. • Return veggies to pan and cook, tossing to coat and heat through, 1 minute.
• Divide coconut rice between bowls. • Top with sweet chilli chicken and veggies, spooning over any remaining sauce from the pan. Enjoy!
