This take on crowd-pleasing popcorn chicken is elevated with a few Japanese twists. Traditional togarashi style seasoning adds crunch and spice to the chicken. You can control the heat by adding as much or as little of the seasoning as you like. Perfect for dipping in a savoury-sweet tonkatsu mayonnaise.

Step-by-step instructions

First Things First

Our vegetables and fruit come as fresh as can be, so please give them a quick wash before you get started.

As well as your basic cooking tools, you will need...

Bowl
Large Frypan
Medium Pot

Step 1

1 Cook Rice

In a pot, bring 1 1⁄2 cup water and rice to a boil, cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 15 minutes until all of the water is absorbed. Keep pot covered and let the rice absorb the water off the heat. Fluff the finished rice with a fork.

Step 2

2 Prepare Ingredients

Remove core of the cabbage and slice thinly. Finely slice spring onions on an angle, separating the white ends from the green tops. Peel and grate carrot. Deseed red capsicum and thinly slice. Pat chicken dry with paper towel and cut into bite size pieces.

Step 3

3 Dust Chicken

In a bowl (or a large resealable bag), combine cornflour and half the togarashi sesame spice blend (or less to taste - this spice mix is pretty hot). Add chicken to the flour mixture and toss to coat. Heat olive oil in a pan (enough to cover the base) over medium-high heat.

Step 4

4 Cook Chicken

Add the coated chicken (shake off any excess flour) in an even layer and cook for 3-4 minutes, until lightly browned. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through. Transfer chicken to a plate lined with paper towel, season with salt and pepper and as much of the remaining togarashi spice as you wish.

Step 5

5 Prepare Slaw

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the slaw. In a bowl combine the sliced cabbage, white spring onion ends, carrot, capsicum strips, sweet chilli and rice vinegar. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.

Step 6

6 You Plate It

Divide rice and slaw between bowls and top with chicken. Garnish with green ends of the spring onion. Serve with tonkatsu mayo on the side. Enjoy!
