For the chicken:

  • 1 tbsp cornflour

  • Salt & pepper

  • 1 tsp oil (for frying)

For the sauce:

  • 2 tbsp honey

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

To serve:

  • 100g rice (white, brown, or jasmine)

  • 1 head of broccoli, cut into florets

  • Sesame seeds + spring onions (optional)


🧑🍳 How to Make It:

  1. Coat & cook the chicken
    Toss the chopped chicken in cornflour, salt and pepper until coated. Heat oil in a pan and fry until golden and cooked through. Set aside.

  2. Make the sauce
    In the same pan, lower the heat and add garlic, sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce, honey, vinegar, sesame oil and chilli flakes. Let it bubble for 1-2 mins until slightly thickened.

  3. Add the chicken back in
    Toss the chicken in the sauce until fully coated and glossy. Cook for another minute until sticky.

  4. Steam the broccoli & cook rice
    While the chicken cooks, steam or boil broccoli and cook the rice according to pack instructions.

  5. Serve it up
    Plate up rice, top with sticky chicken, and add broccoli on the side. Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced spring onions if you’re feeling fancy.
