Ingredients
Method
Combine sauces, maple syrup and half the sesame seeds in a shallow bowl; add chicken and turn to coat well.Â
Line the base of the outer pan of air fryer with foil. Preheat to 200ËšC for 3 minutes.
Taking care, place chicken in the air fryer basket, reserving the marinade; at 200ËšC, cook for 20 minutes, turning and basting with reserved marinade halfway through cooking time, until cooked through.
When chicken has 3 minutes cooking time left, top with pak choy, cut-side up; cook for 3 minutes or until tender.
Meanwhile, reheat jasmine rice following packet directions; transfer to a medium bowl and stir in three-quarters of the green onion.
Serve chicken with rice and pak choy, topped with remaining sesame seeds and green onion.
