Method

Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 8. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, half of the olive oil, the chopped garlic and grated ginger.

Step 2

Put the chicken in a baking dish, pour half the sauce over and mix well to coat. Roast in the oven for 20-25 mins until the chicken is cooked through and caramelised on the edges.

Step 3

Meanwhile, cook the rice following pack instructions.

Step 4

Heat the remaining oil in a small frying pan over a medium heat and cook the onion for 5-8 mins until softened and a little golden. Set aside.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix the cornflour with the remaining sauce in a small saucepan and bring it to a simmer over a medium heat, stirring well until the sauce thickens. Stir in the onion and cooked chicken, then remove from the heat.

Step 6

Serve with the cooked rice, drizzle over any remaining teriyaki sauce from the pan and top with the spring onions.
