Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

⅓ cup warm water
¼ cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon white vinegar
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
¼ teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cubed
2 cups water
1 cup uncooked white rice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
chopped green onions for garnish

Steps:

  • In a bowl, stir together warm water, brown sugar, orange juice, soy sauce, ketchup, white vinegar, garlic, red pepper flakes, five-spice powder, and orange peel until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat, and cook and stir the chicken until the outside is golden brown and the inside is no longer pink, 10 to 12 minutes. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken, bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cover the skillet. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • While the chicken and sauce are simmering, bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Set the rice aside and keep warm.
  • Whisk the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water in a small bowl until smooth, and stir into the chicken and sauce, a few teaspoons at a time. Let the chicken and sauce cook for about 2 minutes to thicken, then serve over hot cooked rice, sprinkled with green onion.

SWEET CHILI CHICKEN WITH RICE



Sweet Chili Chicken With Rice image

This is a super simple meal that has wonderful flavour and can either be made for a main meal or as a light meal depending on the amount of rice cooked. As we are trying not to eat too many carbs at the moment and this was for a main meal I served ours with less rice and some sauced bok choy which paired really well. As you can only buy lemon grass in such large quantities here I have found a brand that is already made into a paste. I used to always use fresh but ended up throwing half of it away before I could use it, so I asked at my local Asian grocery store once what she had and she told me about the paste. It tastes just as good but to me it is more concentrated than fresh so I used 1 Teaspoon in this recipe, I would use 1 Tablespoon if using fresh.

Tips:

  • Use a quality Sweet Chili Sauce: A good quality sweet chili sauce will make all the difference in this dish. Look for a sauce that is thick, sweet, and slightly spicy.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will make it more difficult to get a good sear.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown: Be sure to cook the chicken until it is golden brown on all sides. This will help to lock in the flavor and give the chicken a nice crispy texture.
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give this dish the best flavor. If you can, try to use organic vegetables whenever possible.
  • Season the rice well: Don't forget to season the rice well. This will help to give the dish a more flavorful base.
