Ingredients
- 185 g Cornish game hen
- 15 g ginger
- 3.7 g honey
- 3 g sesame oil
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 1 cup water
- 138 g sweet potato
- 20 g scallion
Method
- 01Prepare a steamer with water and bring it to a steady boil.
- 02In a small bowl, whisk together the minced ginger, honey, sesame oil, and salt to form a glaze.
- 03Place the raw Cornish game hen meat in a shallow heat-proof dish fitting inside the steamer insert. Rub the ginger-honey glaze thoroughly over all sides of the hen meat.
- 04Transfer the dish into the steamer, cover tightly, and steam over medium-high heat for 15 to 18 minutes. Ensure poultry reaches a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) with opaque, cooked-through meat.
- 05During the final 5 minutes of steaming, add the spiralized sweet potato noodles directly to the steamer around the dish (or blanch briefly in the steaming water) until crisp-tender.
- 06Arrange the cooked sweet potato noodles on a serving plate. Top with the steamed Cornish game hen and pour the flavorful steaming juices from the dish over top.
- 07Garnish generously with sliced scallions and serve hot.
