Ingredients
- 125g basmati or jasmine rice
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 x 320g pack mini chicken fillets
- 1 ½ tbsp cornflour
- 2 tbsp tamari or dark soy sauce*
- 2 tbsp clear honey
- 1 ½ tbsp cider vinegar or rice vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- ½ red chilli, finely diced, or a pinch of chilli flakes (optional)
- 1 x 240g pack beans, Tenderstem and baby corn
Step by step
- Add the rice and 300ml boiling water to a pan with a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, stir, cover and cook on a low heat for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the water.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan or wok. Toss the chicken mini fillets with the cornflour and seasoning to coat then add to the hot oil. Fry for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until crisp and golden brown.
- Combine the tamari or soy, honey, vinegar, garlic and chilli, if using, with 2 tablespoons of water. Add to the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced and syrupy.
-
Meanwhile, slice the baby corn into thirds and cook all the vegetables until tender following pack instructions, then drain. Divide the veg and rice between two bowls and spoon the chicken and sauce on top to serve.
*Use tamari, not soy, if gluten-free.
