Thaisweetchilichicken Recipes

Steps:

• Fry the 1/2 of the onions, 1/2 of the ginger, and all the garlic in a very hot pan/pot with vegetable oil. (Add ingredients to the pan in the above mentioned order so that you don't burn the garlic).
• After browning the edges of the onions (about 2-3 mins), add chicken. Fry for five more minutes.
• Add sweet chili sauce, fish sauce, red pepper flakes. (You can add salt/pepper here too if you are familiar with this dish, otherwise wait so that you don't oversalt.).
• Reduce heat to med-low and allow the chicken to simmer without the lid for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The liquid should reduce by at least half.
• Salt/pepper to taste. (The chicken should be fully cooked at this point, so you can taste the sauce.).
• Add the rest of the onions and ginger, then cook for 3-5 more minutes.
• Enjoy with jasmine rice.

Steps:

• Pour water and vinegar into a saucepan, and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in sugar, ginger, garlic, chile pepper, and ketchup; simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in cornstarch. Remove saucepan from stove to cool. Then transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate until needed.

Steps:

• Place the chicken onto a plate, add the cornflour, salt and pepper, toss together to coat the chicken.
• Add the oil to a wok and heat on high. When the oil is very hot, add in the chicken and fry for 5-6 minutes until lightly browned.
• Add in the vegetable stir fry mix and fry for a further two minutes
• Add in the garlic, soy sauce, white wine vinegar, brown sugar and sweet chilli sauce. Continue to heat on high, tossing everything, until heated through. Check the chicken is cooked by taking a large piece and slicing in half.
• Stir through the chopped spring onions and coriander.
• Serve with rice or noodles.

Steps:

• To make the glaze, preheat the grill to high. Mix together the chilli sauce, honey and oil in a large bowl. Using a sharp knife make 3-4 slits across the skin side of each chicken breast. Season with salt and pepper then lift the skin on each breast and tuck under the crushed garlic. Now dip the underside of each chicken breast in the glaze until evenly coated. Reserve the rest of the glaze for later.
• To cook the chicken, put the chicken on the grill pan, glazed side up, and grill for 8 minutes until golden and sticky. Turn the chicken breasts over, brush with the remaining glaze, then cook for another 6-8 minutes until the chicken is firm and cooked through. Serve straight away with wedges of lime for squeezing over, if liked.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add ginger, green onions and garlic and stir 30 seconds.
• Add chicken cubes and stir-fry 2 or 3 minutes, until browned.
• Mix the hoisin, chili sauce and soy sauce and add to the chicken.
• Cook until chicken is fully cooked.
• Add spinach and cook a minute until just wilted.
• Serve over rice and garnish with cilantro.
• If you prefer a thick sauce combine a teaspoon of cornstarch with a bit of water and stir in until sauce thickens.
• Leftovers make a good wrap filling with additional vegetables.
