Cooking Steps

1

Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over a medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the jasmine rice, water (for the rice) and the salt and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water has absorbed, 10-15 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

2

While the rice is cooking, finely grate the ginger. Cut the zucchini into 2cm chunks. Thinly slice the carrot (unpeeled) into half-moons. Trim the snow peas and slice in half. Thinly slice the chicken breast into 1cm strips.

3

In a small bowl, combine the oyster sauce, soy sauce, and water (for the sauce).

4

In a large wok or frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breast and cook, tossing, for 3-4 minutes or until browned. Transfer to a plate. TIP: If your pan is getting crowded, cook in batches for best results!

5

Return the wok or frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the zucchini and carrot and cook until slightly softened, 3-4 minutes. Add the snow peas and ginger and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant and tender. Add the oyster sauce mixture and cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Return the chicken and add the sichuan garlic paste and a drizzle of rice wine vinegar to the pan and toss together until warmed through.

6

Divide the garlic rice and Chinese chicken stir-fry between bowls. Sprinkle with the crushed peanuts. Enjoy!
