Satisfying Chicken and Vegetable Rice Bowl, perfect for family dinner.
Ingredients:
  • 2 green shallots, ends trimmed, finely chopped
  • 2 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
  • 42.00 gm gluten-free soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 5 (about 750g) chicken thigh fillets, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 500g mixed mushrooms (such as portobello and cap mushrooms), thickly sliced
  • 200g (1 cup) long-grain rice
  • 750ml (3 cups) chicken style liquid stock
  • 44.00 gm sweet chilli sauce
  • 24.40 gm fish sauce
  • 150g (1 cup) frozen peas
  • 250.00 ml fresh coriander leaves
Instructions:
  • In a large glass or ceramic bowl, mix together green shallot, ginger, soy sauce, and half of the garlic. Add the chicken and toss until coated evenly.
  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of oil. Cook the chicken in batches for 1-2 minutes until golden brown, turning occasionally. Transfer each batch to a heatproof bowl and repeat with the remaining chicken, reheating the pan as needed.
  • Heat the leftover oil in the pan, then add the mushrooms and remaining garlic. Sauté and stir for 3 minutes until soft. Transfer to a heatproof bowl.
  • Combine the rice, stock, sweet chili sauce, and fish sauce in the pan. Cover and bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat for 10 minutes.
  • Combine the chicken and mushrooms in the pot and simmer with the lid on for 8-10 minutes until the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. Mix in the peas and take the pot off the heat. Let it sit covered for 5 minutes to settle. Fluff up the rice with a fork, mix in the coriander, and season with salt and pepper. Dish out into bowls and enjoy with the Asian-style watercress salad.
