Chicken & red pepper stir fry

Serves 2

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon rapeseed oil, or other oil with a high cooking temperature
  • 120g mini chicken breast fillets, cut into small bite size pieces
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 1 red pepper chopped into bite size pieces
  • Handful of mangetout
  • 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon agave nectar, runny honey or other syrup
  • Medium egg noodles (around 125g dried)

Method

Utensils: Large frying pan and large saucepan

Cook the noodles according to the pack instructions.

At the same time, heat the oil on a high heat in a large deep-sided frying pan or wok.  Add the onion and chicken pieces to the pan, stirring continuously – try not to let it colour.

After 2 minutes, add the pepper, continuing to stir.  Check if the chicken is nearly cooked through – if you can break a piece in half easily with a wooden spatula it should be cooked.  Add the mangetout, and cook for another minute.

Stir through the soy sauce, rice vinegar and agave nectar.  Simmer on a low heat for 30 seconds, then serve with the noodles.
