Honey soy chicken with hokkien noodles and veg

Healthy and delicious!

INGREDIENTS (serves 4)

  • 4 Tablespoons light soy sauce

  • 2 Tablespoons ketjap manis soy sauce (sweet)

  • 1-2 Tablespoons honey (depending on how sweet you like it)

  • 1/3 cup cornflour

  • 650g chicken (preferable organic) diced into medium size pieces (size of 50 cent piece)

  • 450g hokkien noodle pack

  • 1 red capsicum chopped

  • 1 small broccoli head

  • snow peas or sugar snap peas - raw or slightly steamed

  • extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)

METHOD

1. Dice chicken into pieces (approx 2cm cubes) then coat in cornflour (can mix together in plastic bag) and discard the spare flour

2. Put the coated chicken in a bowl and the drizzle with both soy sauces and the honey, then mix well and let sit for up to a few hours

3. Steam broccoli and once cooked dress with EVOO and lemon juice

4. Fry chicken in good amount of EVOO on high heat for a few minutes only turning once or twice with tongs. (I often cover with a lid during cooking to keep the chicken moist). The goal is to get a nice caramelised brown coating.

5. Heat noodles in boiling water for a few minutes, then strain and toss into the pan with the chicken. Mix well so that the noodles are coated by the sauce. Can add extra ketjap manis soy sauce if needed.

6. Serve noodles with chicken and a side of broccoli and chopped red capsicum and snow peas (raw and crunchy)

** alternative is to add capsicum and snow peas to the chicken and cook for a minute before adding the noodles.
