Ingredients

For 4 servings

  • 665 g chicken breast
  • 250 g long-grain white rice
  • 320 g frozen corn
  • 160 g barbecue sauce
  • 100 ml water

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the long-grain white rice according to the package directions in the microwave. Place the chicken breast in a wide, shallow 3-litre microwave-safe casserole dish, cover with a microwave-safe vented lid and microwave at full power for 8–10 minutes until cooked through, then shred. Stir in the cooked rice, frozen corn, barbecue sauce and water, then spread evenly.

  2. 2

    Cover with a microwave-safe vented lid. Using a 1000-watt microwave at full power (100%), heat for 6 minutes. Carefully uncover away from your face, stir thoroughly from the edges into the centre and rotate the dish half a turn.

  3. 3

    Cover again and microwave at full power for 5 minutes. Stir thoroughly and check the temperature in several places, including the centre, with a food thermometer.

  4. 4

    If any part is below 165°F/74°C, cover and continue microwaving at full power in 1-minute intervals, stirring, rotating and checking after each interval until the whole mixture reaches 165°F/74°C. Allow approximately 13–15 minutes of heating altogether; the exact time depends on the starting temperature and dish shape.

  5. 5

    Leave covered to stand for 3 minutes, then stir and divide evenly among four serving bowls or pots. Serve immediately.
