Ingredients

Method

1

For the coconut brown rice, rinse the rice in a sieve under cold water then place in a saucepan with the desiccated coconut, pinch of salt and 350ml cold water.

2

Bring to a boil over a high heat, stir, turn heat to very low and simmer, covered with a lid, for 30-40 minutes or until the rice is tender. Fluff up with a fork and fold through the chilli flakes, lime zest and coriander.

3

While the rice is cooking, cook the chicken. Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium-high heat.

4

Add the chicken, season on top with salt and black pepper and brown for 4-5 minutes on each side then lower the heat to medium.

5

Add the ginger and garlic and fry for 2-3 minutes until aromatic and lightly golden, taking care not to let it burn.

6

Stir in the soy sauce, honey and lime juice and bubble for 2-3 minutes, adding a little boiling water if needed to stop it burning.

7

Check the chicken is cooked through (there should be no bloody juices in the thickest part) then turn off the heat and leave to rest for 5 minutes.

8

Serve the chicken with the coconut rice. Scatter the fresh herbs and chilli on top.
