Ingredients(4)

Chicken breast, skinless, raw161.2 g
Rice, white, long-grain, cooked158.2 g
Broccoli, raw189.8 g
Palm sugar (for marinade and glaze)31.7 g

Instructions

1

In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp fish sauce, a pinch of white pepper, 1 tsp minced garlic, and 20g of the palm sugar. Marinate the thinly sliced chicken breast for 20 minutes.

2

Steam the rice until tender and fluffy. Keep warm.

3

Grill the chicken over high heat until charred and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Brush with the remaining melted palm sugar in the final minute of cooking to create a sticky, caramelized glaze.

4

Briefly steam the broccoli florets until vibrant green and tender-crisp.

5

To serve, portion the warm rice into a small bowl. Arrange the glazed chicken slices alongside the broccoli. Drizzle a tiny amount of lime juice and fresh cilantro over the chicken to cut the sweetness of the glaze. Eat the chicken and rice together with your hands or chopsticks for the authentic Isaan experience.
