  1. Bring a large saucepan filled with salted hot water to a boil. Add the rice and boil for 30-35 mins, until cooked, then drain.
  2. Make the satay sauce; in a small bowl, mix the peanut butter, tamari, juice from half the lime, half the maple syrup and 2 tbsp water until smooth.
  3. Place the chick'n in another small bowl and coat with half the satay sauce. Thread the chick'n evenly onto the skewers. Heat a large frying pan with half the sesame oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the skewers and cook for 3-4 mins, turning once halfway, until crisp and golden. Cook in batches if necessary.
  4. Coarsely grate the carrots. Trim and finely slice the cabbage. Place both in a large mixing bowl and toss with the Asian paste, remaining lime juice, maple syrup and sesame oil. Season with sea salt to taste.
  5. When the rice is cooked, mix it through the salad. Season with sea salt and black pepper. Roughly chop the coriander for garnish.
  6. Serve the rice salad topped with the skewers. Drizzle with the remaining satay sauce. Sprinkle with coriander.
