Place a piece of chicken between 2 sheets of baking paper and gently pound with a rolling pin until 1cm thick. Repeat with remaining chicken. Spread a quarter of the coriander mixture on each piece of chicken. Roll each piece up to enclose filling. Secure each in place with toothpicks.

Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add remaining ginger and cook, stirring, for 20 seconds or until fragrant. Add coconut milk and lime juice. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes or until slightly thickened.

Meanwhile, cook asparagus and bok choy in a large saucepan of boiling water until tender. Drain. Serve chicken and greens drizzled with coconut dressing and garnished with extra coriander leaves.
