Cooking Steps

Cook garlic rice
1

• Finely chop garlic.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat.
• Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil.
• Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low.
• Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes. 


TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don’t peek!  

Cook the veggies
2

• Meanwhile, thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Thinly slice capsicum. Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.
• In a medium bowl, combine chicken, cornflour (see ingredients) and season with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, combine gochujang, the soy sauce, sweet 
soy seasoning, the honey and water (for the sauce).
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook broccoli florets, carrot and capsicum, tossing, until tender, 4-6 minutes.
• Stir in remaining garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Season to taste. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm. 

Cook the tofu & chicken
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.

• When the oil is hot, cook tofu, turning occasionally, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.

• Set air fryer to 200°C. Evenly place chicken chunks into a foil-lined air fryer basket and cook until golden and cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 8-10 minutes.

• When chicken has 5 minutes remaining, pour over sauce mixture and cook, until glaze is sticky.

TIP: No air fryer? Return pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chicken, tossing, until cooked though, 5-6 minutes. Reduce heat to low, then add sauce mixture, tossing until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.

Finish & serve

• Divide garlic rice, gochujang chicken bites, tofu and charred veggies between bowls to serve. Enjoy!
