Poachers Smoked Chicken Breast with Ginger & Cucumber

Serves 4
This is a lovely dish with crisp Asian flavours, very pleasant on a warm summer's evening with a glass of our Poachers Sauvignon Blanc.

Ingredients

2 x 200g Poachers smoked chicken breasts

8 spring onions, cut finely

2 tablespoons grated ginger

150ml peanut or sunflower oil

1 tbsp rice wine vinegar

1 small packet of baby cucumbers sliced diagonally

11/2 cups basmati rice

Coriander for garnishing

Sesame oil

Method

Put the rice on to cook using your preferred method.

Combine spring onions and ginger in a bowl. Heat the oil in a small saucepan; when hot, pour over the onions and ginger. Set aside and steep, then splash a spoonful in a pan and heat. Remove chicken breasts from the packet, take off the stocking and fry on all sides in the pan until crispy and warmed, 5-10 mins and then slice. Add the rice wine vinegar to the onion and ginger mix. Assemble rice, sliced chicken and cucumber and a couple of spoonfuls of the ginger sauce. Drizzle with a little sesame oil and garnish with fresh coriander.
