Instructions

  1. Prep Time:
    • Boil a half-full kettle.
    • While the kettle boils, halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.
    • Halve, peel and chop the red onion into 2cm chunks.
  2. Fry the Chicken and Veg:
    • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
    • Once hot, add the diced chicken, chopped pepper and onion to the pan and season with salt and pepper.
    • Fry until the chicken is golden brown on the outside and the veg has softened, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken.
  3. Cook the Rice:
    • In the meantime, pour the boiled water from your kettle into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat.
    • Add the rice and cook for 12-13 mins.
    • Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.
  4. Bring on the Garlic:
    • While the rice cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
    • Cut the lime into wedges.
    • Once the chicken is golden and the veg has softened, add the garlic to the pan and fry until fragrant, 1 min.
  5. Sauce Things Up:
    • Stir the ketjap manis, gochujang paste, honey, ketchup and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts) into the chicken and veg. TIP: If your honey has hardened, pop it in a bowl of hot water for 1 min.
    • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, 2-3 mins.
    • Squeeze in some lime juice from a lime wedge. Taste and season with salt, pepper and more lime juice if needed.
    • Add a splash of water if you feel it needs it.
  6. Serve:
    • Share the rice between your serving bowls.
    • Spoon over the sweet and sticky chicken stir-fry.
    • Sprinkle over the sesame seeds and serve with any remaining lime wedges for squeezing over.

Enjoy your meal!
