Ingredients

DARING PLANT CHICKEN:

  • 1 package of Daring Original Plant Chicken Pieces, thawed

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 tsp clear agave nectar
  • 4 tsp soy sauce (use tamari for gluten-free)
  • 150g/5oz brown rice
  • Pinch salt
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 2 heads of bok choy, halved
  • ½ tsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp black sesame seeds
  • Handful fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 tsp pumpkin seeds, chopped

Step 1

In a bowl, mix together the agave nectar and soy sauce. Add the Daring Plant Chicken Pieces and mix until completely coated in the marinade.

Step 2

Place the coated Plant Chicken Pieces into a cold, deep, heavy-based saucepan. Place the pan onto a medium heat and cook until the Plant Chicken is heated through and the agave-soy coating has thickened to a glossy glaze, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Meanwhile, cook the rice according to directions.

Step 4

For the bok choy, heat the sesame and avocado oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the bok choy and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the leaves have wilted.

Step 5

When the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork, then stir through the coconut oil, sesame seeds, and cilantro. Sprinkle the chopped pumpkin seeds on top.

Step 6

To serve, spoon the rice onto serving plates and top with the soy and agave Plant Chicken. Place the bok choy alongside.
