Method
In a mixing bowl the chicken cubes and add all the ingredients for the marinade and let the chicken sit for at least an hour in the refrigerator. In a pan add the soaked basmati rice, coconut milk and water, bring it to a boil, reduce the flame to a simmer and cook covered for 12 minutes.
In a pan/wok, pour oil and add the marinated chicken, saute until it’s cooked through and set aside. Add the mushrooms to the same pan and cook until all the water evaporates and they develop some colour. Add the beans, carrots, green chilis and garlic and saute for 30 seconds on high heat. Add the diced capsicum and saute for a few seconds.
Add the cooked and cooled rice to the pan, add soy sauce, salt and black pepper powder, and add back the cooked chicken. Give it a good saute, garnish it with spring onion greens, and serve hot.
