Preparation Time 10 - 20 minutes

Ingredients (serves 6)

6 (about 1kg) chicken thigh cutlets
1 tbs plain flour
1/2 tsp Chinese five spice
60ml (1/4 cup) olive oil
2 carrots, peeled, coarsely chopped
1 leek, ends trimmed, halved lengthways, washed, coarsely chopped
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

Method

1. Place the chicken, flour and Chinese five spice in a sealable plastic bag. Season with pepper. Seal and toss to coat.
  
2. Heat the oil in a large heavy-based saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes each side or until browned. Transfer to a plate.
  
3. Add the carrot, leek and garlic to the pan and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until the leek softens.

Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, for 12-15 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed. Set aside, covered, for 10 minutes to stand. Sprinkle with the fresh parsley leaves to serve.
