Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. Drain the sweetcorn. • In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Cook garlic and sweetcorn until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add basmati rice, water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• When the rice has 10 minutes remaining, cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• Wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium heat. Cook katsu paste, the brown sugar, water (for the sauce) and plant-based butter, stirring, until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine Asian slaw mix, plant-based mayo, the sesame oil and a drizzle of vinegar in a medium bowl. Season to taste.
• Divide corn rice and sesame slaw between bowls. Top with seared chicken and katsu sauce. • Garnish with crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
