Ingredients
- For the Chicken
- 8 chicken thighs skin on, bones in
- 4 tbsp oyster sauce
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp runny honey
- 2 large garlic cloves minced in a garlic press
- 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
- 1 red chilli deseeded and finely chopped
- salt and freshly ground pepper to season
- 1 tbsp rapeseed canola oil to fry
- –––
- 200 g | 7oz brown basmati and wild rice
- 500 ml | 2 cups chicken stock
- 2 large shallots peeled and finely diced
- 1/2 red bell pepper finely diced
- 1/2 yellow bell pepper finely diced
- 4 green onions scallions sliced thinly to garnish
- 1 tbsp butter + 1 tbsp rapeseed canola oil to fry
Instructions
- Put the chicken and all the marinade ingredients together in a bowl or large roasting bag and toss together. Leave to marinate for 2-3 hours or even overnight in the fridge (covered).
- Preheat the oven to 180C (350F).
- Remove the chicken from the marinade shaking most of it off. Reserve the marinade.
- Heat the oil in a large lidded casserole dish. Pan fry the chicken, skin side down first, over medium-high heat for a couple of minutes until golden. Turn over and cook for two more minutes on the other side and set aside. Wipe the pan clean.
- Heat the butter and oil and sweat the shallots for 7 minutes.
- Add the rice and peppers and stir to coat in the butter/oil. Add the reserved marinade and stock and bring to a simmer.
- Place the chicken over the rice and cover the casserole. Cook for 45-50 minutes or until the rice is cooked.
- Serve sprinkled with the chopped spring onions.
Notes
- You can use white basmati rice or long grain rice but you might need to cook it for slightly less time.
