Recipe In Collaboration With Issy, Olive & Spice.

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1 can coconut cream
  • 800g water
  • 2 kaffir lime leaves (optional)
  • 1/4 red cabbage
  • 2 carrots
  • 250g edamame
  • 1 red chilli
  • 1 bunch coriander
  • 1 bunch mint
  • 1/4 cup salted roasted peanuts
  • 1/3 cup coconut flakes
  • 1/4 cup crispy shallots
  • Rich Glen Sweet Chilli Garlic Dressing (about half a bottle, or to taste)

Directions

  1. In a medium pot, bring the coconut cream and water to the boil. Add the kaffir lime leaves and chicken breasts and poach for 20 minutes, or until cooked through.
  2. Meanwhile, prepare the salad ingredients: finely slice the cabbage, julienne the carrots, thinly slice the chilli, and pick the coriander and mint leaves from their stems. Defrost the edamame by placing it in a sieve set over a bowl of water for 10 minutes.
  3. Remove the chicken and let it cool for 10 minutes before shredding - a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, or a hand mixer, makes quick, even work of this.
  4. Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and top with the sweet chilli garlic dressing to taste.
