Ingredients

• 600g Chicken Thighs
  
• 4 Tbsp Maple Syrup
• 4 Tbsp Miso Paste
• 2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
• 2 Tbsp Sake or White Wine

Method

1. Rinse rice until water runs clear, drain well and cook as per packet instructions.
   
   
2. Cut the broccoli into florets and the chicken into medium-sized pieces. Set aside.
   
   
3. In a large bowl, whisk maple syrup, miso paste, soy sauce, and sake. Add the chicken.
   
   
4. Bring a large casserole dish to high heat and drizzle with cooking oil. Once hot, add the marinated chicken and spread evenly all over the pan.
   
   
5. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the chicken starts to change to a darker colour. Stir, then cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the broccoli and stir through.
   
   
6. Cover and turn down heat to medium. Cook for a further 3-5 minutes until broccoli is cooked to your preferred consistency. Turn off the heat.
   
   
7. Serve maple and miso chicken hot on a bed of rice and garnished with sesame seeds.

Tips:

• You can substitute the chicken thighs for chicken breast or chicken drumsticks, just adjust the cooking time.
• Roast the sesame seeds in the oven at 200°C for 5-7 minutes until golden or in a pan on medium heat until golden.
• You can swap or add additional green veggies.
