Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Add the sliced chicken thigh fillets and soy sauce to a bowl and mix well. Note: it is important that chicken pieces are not too big, or else they won’t cook quickly.

Step 2

Set a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Once warm, add the chicken and fry for 6-7 minutes, until cooked through. Do this in batches if needed so as not to overcrowd the pan. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Step 3

Add the sliced spring onion, shredded cabbage and grated carrot, and fry for 2-3 minutes, until softened. Add the jasmine rice, using a wooden spoon to break it up as you go, and cook for 3-4 minutes, until steaming hot.

Step 4

Add the fish sauce, kecap manis and the cooked chicken. Remove from the heat, taste and adjust the seasoning as required. You’re looking for a balance of sweet, salty and sharp. Use the soy sauce, fish sauce and kecap manis to adjust the flavour. When you're happy serve and enjoy!
