निर्देश

Add all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and add just enough hot water to loosen the chili paste. Stir well to combine and set aside for now.

Trim the chicken of any fatty bits and pat dry. Season with salt, pepper, paprika and red pepper flakes. Dust with the cornstarch.

Heat the oil and butter in a large pan and sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side over medium-high heat, until nicely golden.

Pour the cooking wine and let it bubble away until almost completely evaporated, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any sticky bits.

Add most of the marinade and cook for a further 3-4 minutes, flipping the chicken over so it's nicely coated with the sticky glaze on both sides. Transfer the chicken onto a plate.

Lower the heat to medium-low and add a splash more oil to the pan if needed. Sauté the shallots for 5 minutes, stirring often.

Return the chicken to the pan and pour in the coconut milk and remaining marinade. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce has reduced.

Taste the sauce and add the lime juice or rice vinegar to balance the flavors.

Combine all the salad ingredients in a bowl and stir well.

Add the cucumbers and toss well to combine. Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped roasted peanuts.

Serve the chicken over coconut rice, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds and the cucumber salad on the side.
