Heat & finish
Warm gently, then place the chicken skin‑side up under a hot grill for a minute or two until the skin turns golden, crisp and lightly blistered.
Plate like a pro
Keep the chicken leg whole and sit it proudly on steamed rice. Slice the cabbage lengthwise and lay it next to the chicken. Spoon the chilli oil around the chicken, not over the top, so the crispy skin stays intact.
Make it a meal
Serve with steamed jasmine rice & the seared & roasted hispi cabbage. A fresh herb & pickle salad with lime brings brightness and balance.
Chef’s extra touch
Finish with lime zest, fresh chilli and torn coriander. For added crunch, scatter over toasted coconut or crunchy peanuts.
Cooking instructions: Other
Oven cook from chilled. If freezing at home defrost thoroughly before cooking. Before cooking: Preheat Oven. Remove all packaging and set aside chilli oil sachet and cabbage pouch for later use. Place the chicken on a baking tray on the middle shelf of the oven. During cooking: Baste the chicken with the juices regularly. Remove the cabbage from pouch and pat dry with kitchen paper to remove liquid. Heat frying pan until hot over moderate heat and add 1tsp of olive oil. Place cabbage cut face down into the pan and cook for 5 minutes turning halfway through. Add a teaspoon of butter to the cabbage during cooking. Place the sachet of chilli oil into a mug of boiling water for 1 minute. After cooking: Place the chicken legs onto a warmed plate. Cut the cabbage in half lengthways and serve alongside the chicken. Remove the sachet carefully from the mug of boiling water, drizzle the chilli oil over the chicken legs to finish. Check food is piping hot. All cooking appliances vary. This is a guide only. Oven cook from chilled 220°C / Fan 200°C / Gas 8 30 mins
