Sweet Soy Chicken Tacos

with charred corn salad

25 min
Difficulty: 1/3

Ketjap manis is a popular condiment in Southeast Asia (and beyond) that's sometimes referred to a 'sweet soy sauce' and indeed that's exactly how its flavour profile could be described. The sweet and tangy glaze in this dish works wonderfully with the pan-seared chicken.

Preparation
1
Get Prepped
  • Preheat the oven (for the tortillas) to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Drain and rinse the sweetcorn in a sieve.
  • Halve and thinly slice the tomato.
  • Halve, peel and thinly slice the shallot.
  • Trim the salad leaves and halve lengthways. Roughly chop widthways.

TIP: If you want to avoid turning on the oven, dry-fry the tortillas in a pan instead!

2
Char the Corn
  • Place a large pan over high heat (without oil).
  • Once hot, add the sweetcorn and cook until charred, 5-6 mins. Shift occasionally as the corn colours.
  • Once cooked, transfer from the pan (set the pan aside for use later).
3
Make the Salad
  • In a bowl, mix together the tomatoshallot, charred sweetcorn, ½ tsp salt (per 2P) and 1 tbsp oil (per 2P).
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
4
Fry the Chicken
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the chicken in the Thai spice mix until cooked through, stirring, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.

5
Warm the Tortillas
  • Add the ketjap manis, sweet chilli sauce, 1 tsp sugar (per 2P) and 1 tbsp oil (per 2P) to the pan.
  • Cook, coating the chicken, 1-2 mins.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, pop the tortillas into the oven to warm, 1-2 mins.

TIP: Loosen the sauce with a splash of water if you feel it's too thick.

6
Finish and Serve
  • Serve tortillas, salad leaves, charred corn salad, chicken and creme fraiche separately.
  • Assemble your individual tacos at the table.
  • Drizzle over any sweet soy glaze remaining remaining in the pan.
