cooking steps

Method 

  1. Make your chicken glaze by mixing 1 tbsp of Mei Mei Sweet Soy, 1 tbsp of Mei Mei Hot honey and 2 tbsp water. 
  2. Season your chicken breasts in flour on both sides - this will make your chicken cook nice and crispy. 
  3. Cook the chicken skin side down in a lightly oiled cold frying pan, then bring up to medium heat. Cook for 8-10 minutes until the skin is deep golden and crips. Flip and cook for 3-4 minutes more. 
  4. Turn the heat to medium low and add in your glaze, letting it bubble for 2-3 minutes, spooning it over the chicken until it reduces to a sticky glaze. It will catch quickly because of the sugar but stay with it. 
  5. Set aside the chicken to rest for 5 minutes, then slice. 
  6. In a saucepan on a low heat, blend all the broth ingredients together.
  7. Mould rice in a shallow bowl, lay the sliced chicken on top, pour the broth around the rice and finish off with spring onion curls and a squeeze of lime.
