Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- coriander sprigs, to serve
Spring onion oil
- 2 tbsp grated ginger
- ½ tsp salt flakes
- 5 spring onions, white and light green part, thinly sliced
- 125 ml (½ cup) vegetable oil
Serves 4 as part of a shared meal
Instructions
- For the spring onion oil, lightly pound the ginger, salt and spring onion in a heatproof mortar and pestle until the onion has broken up. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a small saucepan until smoking, then pour into the mortar. Stir and allow to cool.
- Meanwhile, place the chicken on a plate and steam over low heat for about 12 minutes, depending on the size of the breast. Alternatively, cook in a steam oven at 62°C for 30-45 minutes. Pour any juices released by the chicken into a small bowl and add the soy sauce and sesame oil.
- To serve, slice the chicken and pour the sauce over. Scatter with coriander sprigs and serve with the spring onion oil.
