Lemon Chicken with Jasmine Rice

INGREDIENTS
 2 cups (rice measuring cups) jasmine rice
 200 g chicken or turkey breast
 ½ red and yellow pepper (sliced)
 1 pinch (handful) of green beans, sliced
 1 tbsp neutral oil (e.g: canola)
 1 clove of garlic (crushed)
 ½ tsp crushed ginger
 2 sticks spring onions
 1 yellow onion (sliced)
FOR THE SAUCE
 6 tbsp lemon juice
 3 tbsp soy sauce
 1 tsp brown sugar
 pinches salt and pepper to taste
 1 tbsp cornflour (with 2 tbsp water mixed to thicken sauce)
HOW TO MAKE
1

Put the rice into the inner bowl of your rice cooker and fill to the level 2 with water. Press the ’LONG GRAIN’ or ’WHITE’ function on your rice cooker and press ’START’

2

Heat a pan with the oil, add the ginger and garlic, stirring to make sure it doesn’t burn

3

Add the chicken/turkey and cook for 5-7minutes and then add the red peppers, green beans and cook for a further 4 minutes

4

Add the lemon juice, soy sauce and brown sugar, stir to coat the meat and veg, bring the sauce to a bubble

5

Add the cornflour and water mix to thicken the sauce – do this a little at a time, stirring the sauce well until you get to the consistency you want

6

Taste to see how balanced the sauce is – it should be the right combination of tarty and sweet with a touch of salty - adjust the seasoning by adding more soy sauce, a pinch of salt and some white pepper then serve with rice
