Ingredients
- 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1⁄4 tsp Chinese 5 spice
- 1 tbsp root ginger, grated
- 2 skinless chicken breastsasts
- 200g pak choi or choi sum
- 200g Tenderstem or broccoli florets, halved if thick-stemmed
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 1 x 250g pouch cooked rice
- 2 spring onions, finely sliced (optional)
- 2 tsp sesame seeds
Step by step
- Heat the oven to 220°C, fan 200°C, gas 7. Mix the hoisin sauce, Chinese 5 spice and ginger in a bowl, then add the chicken breasts and coat in the sauce. Add the chicken to a large roasting tray, spoon any leftover sauce from the bowl over the top and bake for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, put the pak choi and broccoli in a bowl, drizzle the sesame oil over the top and rub in well with a pinch of salt so that everything is coated. Add to the tray around the chicken after 10 minutes, and bake for another 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the greens are tender.
- Heat the rice according to pack instructions. Slice the chicken, scatter the spring onion and seeds over the top, and serve with the veg and rice.
