  1. SWEET CHILLI CHICKEN

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. In a bowl, combine the sweet chilli sauce, ½ the NOMU rub, the grated garlic & ginger, and a splash of water. Spread the chicken pieces on a roasting tray. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. Coat in oil, the remaining NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). In the final 5 minutes, add the sweet chilli marinade.

  2. READY THE RICE

    Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 300ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 25-30 minutes. Drain (if necessary) and cover.

  3. TOAST THE SEEDS

    Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. CREAMY CABBAGE SLAW

    In a bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, the carrot matchsticks, ½ the toasted seeds, the yoghurt, ½ the chopped parsley, and seasoning.

  5. YUM FOR THE TUM

    Plate up the fluffy rice and top with the sticky chicken & all the tray juices. Side with the cabbage slaw. Scatter over the remaining seeds and parsley. Enjoy, Chef!
