Ingredients
Main Ingredients (2-3 servings)
- Broccoli 150g
- Chicken Breast 200g
- Potato Starch 3 tbsp
Seasonings
- [A] Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 2 tbsp
- [A] Chicken Bouillon Powder 1 tsp
- [A] Grated Garlic 1 tsp
- [A] Salt a pinch
- [A] Pepper a pinch
- Vegetable Oil for cooking
Steps
- Separate broccoli into florets and stems. Trim off any dirty parts of the stems.
- Cut the broccoli stems into 3-5mm cubes.
- Place the cut stems in a heatproof container, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for 1 minute at 600W.
- Place the broccoli florets on top of the stems and microwave for another 1.5 minutes. [This is the key!] Heating the stems and florets separately ensures even cooking for a delicious result.
- Drain the microwaved broccoli in a colander.
- Butterfly the chicken breast and cut it into 3-5mm cubes.
- Place the cubed chicken breast in a bowl. Add 2 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine), 1 tsp Chicken Bouillon Powder, 1 tsp Grated Garlic, a pinch of Salt, a pinch of Pepper, and 3 tbsp Potato Starch. Mix and coat the chicken. [This is the key!] The potato starch coating will keep the chicken tender and moist even after cooking.
- Squeeze the water out of the microwaved broccoli florets and finely chop them.
- Squeeze the water out of the broccoli stems, add them to the bowl with the chicken, and mix everything evenly.
- Heat an adequate amount of Vegetable Oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Scoop the mixture with a spoon, place it in the frying pan, and shape it into round patties. Gently press down to flatten into discs.
- Once the bottoms are browned, flip them over.
- Cover with a lid and steam-fry over low to medium heat for 2 minutes.
- Once steamed and browned, transfer to a plate. Enjoy!
