Boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan and crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount). In a large bowl, combine half of the nasi-bami spices with a drizzle of olive oil. Cut the chicken breast lengthways into two strips, then transfer to the bowl and coat with the spices. Set aside to marinate until step 3. Boil the rice for 10 - 12 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Cut the carrot into thin crescents. Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large wok or deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the onion with the garlic, carrot and the rest of the nasi-bami spices for 5 - 7 minutes. Slice the cucumber into crescents. In a bowl, combine the white wine vinegar with the sugar and add the cucumber. Season to taste with salt and mix well to combine, then set aside until serving, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. Thread the chicken onto the skewers and fry for 6 - 8 minutes until evenly browned. Add the rice and fry for 4 - 5 minutes, then stir in the ketjap and fry for 2 - 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Heat the saté sauce in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Serve the nasi goreng on plates and top with the chicken skewers. Serve with the saté sauce and the quick-pickled cucumber.
