Ingredients
  • 352 g boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 25 g extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tbsp fish sauce
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 100 g pork ribs
  • 121.5 g jasmine and wild rice blend
  • 277.7 g green cabbage
  • 1 tbsp scallions
  • 1 tbsp fresh cilantro
Method
  1. 01Cook the jasmine and wild rice blend with water according to package directions, then fluff with a fork.
  2. 02Cut the green cabbage and steam until tender-crisp, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  3. 03In a small bowl, prepare the glaze by mixing the fish sauce, granulated sugar, minced ginger, and black pepper.
  4. 04Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a heavy skillet or clay pot over medium-high heat.
  5. 05Add the cut chicken thighs and sear until golden brown on all sides and internal temperature reaches at least 165°F (74°C) measured with a thermometer, about 5-6 minutes.
  6. 06Pour the glaze over the chicken, reduce heat to low, and simmer covered for 10 minutes until the sauce reduces into a dark amber caramel that coats the chicken.
  7. 07Place the fluffed rice in a bowl, add the steamed cabbage alongside, top with caramelized chicken and extra pan sauce, and garnish with chopped scallions and cilantro.
  8. 08Cook the chicken until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) in its thickest part before serving. Cook the pork until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C), then rest the pork for at least 3 minutes before serving.
