Method ⏲️

Crispy chicken tossed in a sticky orange glaze with rice and broccoli.

Step 1: Prep your chicken

Toss 700 g chicken thighs with ¼ cup cornflour, 1 tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp salt and ¼ tsp black pepper until every piece is lightly coated.

Step 2: Cook your chicken

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Cook your chicken for 8-10 minutes, turning now and then, until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a plate.

Step 3: Make your sauce

In the same pan, add 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic and 1 tsp grated ginger. Stir for 30 seconds, then add ½ cup orange juice, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tbsp white vinegar and 1 tsp orange zest.

Step 4: Add your broccoli

Cut your broccoli into small, bite-sized florets. Add 2 cups to the pan and simmer for 3-4 minutes until bright green and just tender. Return the chicken to the pan and toss everything together until the sauce becomes sticky and evenly coats the chicken and broccoli.

Step 5: Build your bowls

Divide 3 cups cooked jasmine rice between 4 bowls, then spoon over your sticky orange chicken and broccoli. Finish with 2 sliced spring onions and then dig in while it’s glossy.
