Sticky, savoury, slightly sweet… and yes, the kids actually eat it! 🙌
Ingredients:
- Rice — as much as needed for your family
- 1 kg chicken breast, cut into pieces
- ⅓ tsp salt & pepper
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1–2 tbsp minced garlic (to taste)
- 4 tbsp tapioca flour or cornflour
- 100 g honey
- 60 ml soy sauce
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp coconut aminos (optional)
- 80 ml chicken broth
- 2 tbsp flavour-free coconut oil (or other high smoke-point oil)
- Spring onions, sliced
- Sesame seeds, to serve
Method
1. Cook rice according to preference.
2. Toss chicken with tapioca flour/cornflour, salt, pepper and onion powder until evenly coated.
3. In a bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, coconut aminos and a small dash of tapioca flour/cornflour. Set aside.
4. Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat until hot. Add chicken in a single layer and cook undisturbed until deeply golden underneath. Flip and cook for another ~2 minutes (it doesn’t need to be cooked through yet).
5. Reduce heat, add chicken broth and allow to simmer gently.
6. Pour in the honey mixture, stir to coat the chicken and simmer on low for 2–3 minutes until thickened and glossy.
Save for later and try it this week.
