• Boil the kettle. Place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In a shallow bowl, combine garlic & herb seasoning, the plain flour and a pinch of salt. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs and sesame seeds (see ingredients). • Coat chicken first in the flour mixture, then into the egg and finally in the sesame breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
• Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Add jasmine rice and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over high heat until tender, 12-14 minutes. • Drain and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. Cook chicken in batches until golden and cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. • Wipe out frying pan and return to medium-low heat. Add katsu paste, the brown sugar, water and butter and cook, stirring, until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• While the chicken is cooking, combine shredded cabbage mix, baby leaves and mayonnaise in a large bowl. Season to taste. • Slice crumbed chicken. • Divide rapid rice and creamy slaw between bowls. • Top with sesame crumbed chicken. • Spoon katsu sauce over chicken to serve. Enjoy!
