Ingredients
- 25 g butter
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 knob ginger, sliced
- 1 cup rice, washed
- 1-2 tsp dark soy
- 1 spring onion, cut into batons, for garnish
Chicken
- 250 g chicken thigh, cut into pieces
- 4-6 fresh shiitake mushrooms, halved
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp Chinese cooking wine
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 50 g smoked cured speck, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190°C.
- Add butter to a heat-proof clay pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted sauté garlic and ginger. Add the rice and stir through the butter.
- Once the rice is coated, add the water to about 1-1.5 cm above the rice. Bring up to the boil and transfer to the oven, with the lid on, and bake for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the chicken and mushrooms in a bowl with sugar, and Chinese cooking wine. Stir well before adding the corn starch. Add the speck and stir through. Marinate for 10-15 minutes.
- After the rice has been in the oven for 20 minutes, add the marinated mixture, and return to the oven, covered, at 240°C for a further 15-20 minutes.
- Let it rest for 5 minutes, before removing the lid and pouring over the dark soy. Garnish with spring onions. Serve hot and stir to combine at the table.
