Quantities and times are a starting point: adjust them to your taste. Two things don't change: poultry and ground meat must be cooked all the way through, and allergens — always check the labels.

Teriyaki chicken with rice in the Varoma

Chicken marinated in teriyaki sauce and rice, cooked at the same time.

Rico's note: Teriyaki and rice, all made at once in the Thermomix® or similar — a trick that will change your Sundays.

Ingredients

  • 500 g (1 lb) chicken breast, diced
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey (30 g / 1 oz)
  • 1 clove garlic (3 g)
  • 5 g fresh ginger, grated
  • 300 g (10½ oz) basmati rice, uncooked
  • 600 ml (2½ cups) water — for the rice
  • 200 g (7 oz) broccoli florets
  • 150 g (5½ oz) carrot sticks
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds (4 g)

Method

  1. In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic and ginger. Set aside 3 tbsp of the sauce in a separate bowl and marinate the chicken in the rest for 10 minutes.
  2. Cook the rice in water at a 1:2 ratio, about 12 to 15 minutes.
