Pan-fried chicken and stir-fried veggies; it’s almost too good to be true. Cook the veggies in a umami oyster sauce and sprinkle on the delicious combination of sweet and soy over the chicken. This will help to give it a signature golden glow. Even the rice has an extra kick of flavour from the garlic. This dinner really is a dream come true!

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook 1/2 the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water and a generous pinch of salt to the pan and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine sweet soy seasoning, the remaining garlic and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken and toss to combine.
Little cooks: Take charge by combining the ingredients for the seasoning!
• When the rice has 10 minutes remaining, add the plain flour to the chicken and toss to coat. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to cover the base. • When oil is hot, dust off any excess flour from chicken, then cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of sesame oil. • Cook Asian stir-fry mix and ginger paste until tender and fragrant, 2-3 minutes.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the ginger paste starts to spatter!
• Remove pan from heat, then add oyster sauce, a drizzle of rice wine vinegar and a splash of water. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
• Divide garlic rice between bowls. • Top with oyster sauce veggies and Asian stir-fried chicken. • Dollop with mayonnaise to serve. Enjoy!
Little cooks: Kids can help dollop over the mayo!
