Cooking Steps
1
- Boil a half-full kettle.
- Meanwhile, trim the green beans and cut into thirds. Halve the lime (see ingredients).
- Pour the boiled water into a saucepan with 0.25 tsp salt on high heat.
- Boil the rice, 12-13 mins. Once cooked, drain, pop back in the pan and cover.
2
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
- Once hot, fry the chicken and green beans, 8-10 mins. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so it's no longer pink in the middle.
- Add the coleslaw mix. Stir-fry for 1 min.
3
- Add the Indonesian style spice, teriyaki, sambal (add less if you'd prefer things milder), honey and water (see pantry for both) to the pan.
- Bring to the boil, then simmer, 2-3 mins.
- Squeeze in the lime juice, then remove from the heat.
4
- Fluff up the rice. Share between your bowls.
- Top with the chicken.
- Sprinkle over the sesame seeds.
Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The teriyaki-sambal combination delivers bold, layered flavours that many find satisfying; some felt the dish leaned a little bland or flat, suggesting the sauce balance is key.
- Ease of prep: Quick and straightforward to pull together, with minimal prep needed; a handful of cooks found the total time ran longer than expected.
- Suggestions: Use less sambal paste for a milder result, and consider reducing the water added to the sauce to keep the flavour concentrated. Swapping green beans for alternatives like mangetout, mushrooms, or tender-stem broccoli works well if you prefer a different texture. Adding a squeeze of lime at the end brightens the dish noticeably.
- Next-day meals: Some found the chicken portion on the smaller side, particularly for larger households; using chicken thighs instead of breast is worth considering for a more substantial result.
- Spice level: The sambal paste can make this dish quite hot, so families cooking for young children may want to use a small amount or leave it out entirely.
- Rice and sauce ratio: A few cooks noted too much rice relative to the sauce; cooking slightly less rice and holding back on the water helps keep the dish well-balanced.
