Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the sweet potato (unpeeled) into 2cm chunks. Place the sweet potato, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Toss to coat, spread out in a single layer and roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. TIP: Cut the sweet potato to the correct size so it cooks in the allocated time!

2

While the sweet potato is roasting, chop the chicken breast into 2cm chunks. Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce (for the chicken), honey and 1/2 the garlic. Set aside. Roughly chop the Asian greens. Roughly chop the coriander. Thinly slice the long red chilli (if using). In a medium bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar with a generous drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the shredded red cabbage and toss to coat. Set aside.

3

In a small bowl, combine the peanut butter, brown sugar, hot water, a good squeeze of lime juice and the soy sauce (for the sauce) using a whisk or fork. Set aside. TIP: Using hot water and a whisk will make the dressing easier to mix. Add a dash more water if you prefer a runnier consistency.

4

When the sweet potato has 10 minutes cook time remaining, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken and cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Add the honey soy mixture and cook, tossing occasionally, until well coated, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate to rest.

5

Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle more olive oil. Add the Asian greens and the remaining garlic and cook until slightly wilted and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the soy sauce (for the veg) and stir to combine.

6

Divide the roasted sweet potato, red cabbage, Asian greens and honey soy chicken between bowls. Drizzle with the peanut dressing and top with the coriander and long red chilli (if using).
