Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. To prepare the ingredients, peel and grate the ginger, and peel and crush the garlic. Rinse the Jasmine rice well. Cut the broccoli into small florets, finely chop the spring onion, and deseed and slice the long red chilli.

Marinate the chicken
2

In a medium bowl combine the vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons of the salt-reduced soy sauce, half of the brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and the Chinese five spice, and whisk well. Add the chicken breast to the bowl and stir until well coated. Place the marinated chicken into a large baking dish and bake for 35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Add the broccoli
3

Place the Jasmine rice and the 6 cups of water in a medium saucepan and bring to the boil over a high heat. Cover with a lid and reduce the heat to medium. Simmer, covered, for 8 minutes. Add the broccoli and cook for an extra 3 minutes or until the rice and broccoli are tender. Drain.

Combine the ingredients
4

Remove the chicken from the baking dish, transfer to a chopping board and slice diagonally into 1 cm thick pieces. Add the remaining salt-reduced soy sauce, brown sugar, hot water and spring onion to the baking dish and stir, scraping the base of the dish until well combined.

5

Divide the Jasmine rice and broccoli between bowls and top with the chicken. Drizzle over the tray juices and garnish with the long red chilli. Enjoy!
