In a sieve, wash the rice until the water runs clear.

Melt 30g of Lurpak® butter and cook the marinated chicken over a medium heat for 10 minutes until well coloured. Remove and set aside.

Wipe the pan clean of any burnt bits and then melt the second 30g of Lurpak® butter and fry the onions, garlic and ginger until golden. Stir in the rice and the spices and cook for a further minute. Add the chicken back in the pan and cover with the chicken stock. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and bring to the boil. Lower the heat to a minimum and cook the rice for another 10 minutes.
