Ingredients
- 129.2 g white rice
- 145.3 g sweet potato
- 120 ml water
- 177 g boneless skinless chicken breast
- 32.3 g spinach
- 0.5 g salt
- 5 ml soy sauce
- 5 g scallion
Method
- 01Place the diced sweet potato, cooked white rice, and water into a small heatproof bowl, mixing lightly to form a porridge base.
- 02Thinly slice the raw chicken breast into delicate bite-sized strips and nestle them on top of the rice and sweet potato mixture.
- 03Place the bowl into a bamboo steamer set over a pot of rapidly boiling water. Cover tightly and steam for 12-14 minutes. Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is fully opaque throughout, and sweet potatoes are fork-tender.
- 04Remove the steamer lid carefully, avoiding hot steam, and fold in the fresh spinach leaves until just wilted.
- 05Season with salt and light soy sauce.
- 06Garnish with freshly sliced scallions and serve hot.
