Ingredients
- 4 skinless chicken thigh fillets
- 170 ml (⅔ cup) soy sauce, plus extra for seasoning
- 60 ml ( ¼ cup) hoisin sauce
- 170 ml (⅔ cup) sweet soy sauce
- salt and black pepper, to taste
- 400 g (2 cups) Jasmine rice
- olive oil, for drizzling
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1 spring onion, thinly sliced, plus extra to serve
Marinating time: 30 minutes
Instructions
- Place the chicken in a bowl with the soy sauce, hoisin sauce and sweet soy sauce, then season to taste and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the rice into a rice cooker, add about 500 ml (2 cups) water and press cook. Halfway through the cooking process, add a dash of olive oil and salt and pepper.
- Drain the chicken, reserving the marinade. Set an airfryer to 200˚C and cook the chicken for about 9 minutes or until cooked through. Alternatively, preheat the oven to 200˚C , place the chicken on a baking tray and roast for 15-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the reserved marinade in a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat until thickened and reduced to a glaze consistency. Remove from the heat and set aside for serving. As soon as the chicken has finished cooking, brush all over with the glaze. Rest for 5 minutes, then thickly slice.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and spring onion and stir for 1 minute or until fragrant.
- Once the rice is cooked, stir in the garlic and spring onion mixture and season to taste with a little soy sauce.
- To serve, spoon the rice into a bowl, top with the chicken and any resting juices and scatter with the extra spring onion.
