FLUFFY RICE
Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 200ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
TOAST
Place the chopped Peanuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
MINCE
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally).
PEANUT STEW
Add the diced onions to the pan with the mince and fry until soft, 3-4 minutes. Add the NOMU rub and the tomato paste. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Pour in 200ml of water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer until slightly reduced, 6-8 minutes. In the final 2-3 minutes, stir in the peanut butter and simmer until thickened. Remove from heat, add a sweetener, and season.
TIME TO EAT
Make a bed of the fluffy rice, top with the peanut Chicken, and drizzle over the lemon juice (to taste). Garnish with the toasted nuts and the chopped coriander. Easy, Chef!
