Instructions

Cook the Rice
1

a) Boil a full kettle.

b) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat.

c) Add the rice and cook for 12-13 mins.

c) 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.

Fry your Chicken
2

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, add the chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper.

c) Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Add the Veg
3

a) Add the coleslaw mix to the chicken.

b) Cook until slightly softened, 1-2 mins. Add a drizzle of oil if needed.

Mix up the Sauce
4

a) In a small bowl, combine the ginger, garlic & lemongrass puree, ketjap manis, rice vinegar and sambal (use less if you'd prefer things milder).

b) Mix in the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount), then set aside.

Combine and Stir
5

a) When the chicken is cooked, stir the sauce mixture into the pan and cook until thickened slightly, 1-2 mins.

b) Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.

c) Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Finish and Serve
6

a) Share the jasmine rice between your bowls.

b) Top with the chicken and veg stir-fry, spooning over any remaining sauce from the pan.

c) Sprinkle over the sesame seeds to finish.

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the dish's taste, though some found the sauce too acidic or vinegary. Consider adding a touch of honey to balance the flavours.
  • Ease of prep: Reviewers praised the quick and easy preparation, with clear instructions making it simple to cook.
  • Suggestions: Use less rice vinegar for a milder taste. Consider swapping the coleslaw mix for traditional stir-fry vegetables like beansprouts and mushrooms.
  • Portions: Some found the chicken portion small; consider adding an extra fillet or more vegetables to bulk up the meal.
