Ingredients
- 160 g chicken breast
- 2 tbsp palm sugar
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 tsp garlic
- 0.125 tsp white pepper
- 43.3 g white rice
- 1.5 cup broccoli
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 2 sprig fresh cilantro
Method
- 01Soak the glutinous rice in water for at least 3 hours (or overnight), then drain and steam in a bamboo steamer for 20 minutes until translucent and tender. Keep warm.
- 02In a bowl, whisk together the fish sauce, minced garlic, ground white pepper, and 20g of the palm sugar. Add the sliced chicken breast and marinate for 20 minutes.
- 03Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken slices for 3 to 4 minutes per side until charred and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C). Brush with the remaining 10g of melted palm sugar during the last minute of cooking to glaze.
- 04Steam the broccoli florets over boiling water for 3 to 4 minutes until vibrant green and tender-crisp.
- 05Serve the warm sticky rice alongside the glazed grilled chicken and steamed broccoli. Drizzle the chicken with fresh lime juice and garnish with chopped cilantro.
