Instructions

1

Rinse 75g jasmine rice until the water runs clear. Cook in 150ml water until fluffy and fragrant, about 18 minutes.

2

In a hot pan or wok, add 4g olive oil. Season 250g chicken thighs with aromatics (minced garlic, ginger) and sear over medium-high heat until the skin is deeply golden and the meat is cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. The chicken should smell intensely savory and nutty.

3

While the chicken rests, steam 250g broccoli florets until tender-crisp and vibrant green, about 4-5 minutes.

4

To plate: Spoon the fragrant jasmine rice into a bowl, arrange the seared chicken thighs alongside, and heap the steamed broccoli on the side. Garnish with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lime if available to brighten the flavors.
