Steps

Less than 1 Hour

1

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over a medium high heat on the stove. Add the chicken thighs and cook each side for 5 minutes or until browned on each side. Remove the chicken from a skillet and set aside on a plate. The chicken doesn't need to be fully cooked yet because you'll be returning it to the heat shortly
2

Turn the heat down to medium-low then stir the uncooked rice along with the spice blend. Cook a minute and add the water to the pan.
3

Give it a good stir and carefully add the chicken back into the pan, cover with the lid and simmer for about 10 minutes until the liquid is almost absorbed.
4

Combine all of the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Pour it all over the chicken and rice then simmer for another 5 minutes.
5

Garnish with sesame seeds and spring onions. Enjoy!
