Ingredients

Method

  1. Before serving, stir in mango puree and ground cumin into the chicken.
  2. In a bowl, mix vinegar, soy sauce, lemongrass, ginger, and garlic. Add chicken and marinate for 1-2 hours.
  3. Preheat grill or skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken until charred and cooked through, about 6 minutes per side.
  4. While chicken cooks, prepare rice: rinse rice, add to pot with water and butter. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer and cook until water is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
  5. Serve chicken with rice.
  6. Before serving, check that the thickest part of the poultry reaches 74°C (165°F) with a food thermometer.
