Honey, soy and lime chicken with noodles
Recipe: Teresa Ulyate
Serves: 2
Cooking time: Under 30 minutes
INGREDIENTS
1 T honey
¼ c soy sauce
1 T lime juice
1 t crushed ginger
1½ t crushed garlic
2 free range chicken breast fillets
150 g dried noodles
60 g mange tout
60 g baby corn
sunflower oil, for frying
salt and pepper
sesame seeds, to garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine the honey, soy sauce, lime juice, ginger and garlic in a bowl and mix well to make a dressing.
Cut the chicken fillets into 5cm strips. Measure 3 tablespoons of the dressing into a small bowl and set aside. Toss the chicken strips in the remaining dressing to coat and leave to stand.
Bring a pot of water to the boil on the stove. Add the noodles and cook as per the packet instructions. (They should be cooked but still form, not too soft!)
Rinse the mange tout and baby corn. Top and tail the mange tout and cut the baby corn in half lengthways.
Heat a dash of sunflower oil in a frying pan or wok. Add the chicken and its marinade and cook for a few minutes just to brown the chicken. Add the baby corn and cook for 1 minute. Add the mange tout and cook for a further 2-3 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
Drain the noodles. Add the chicken, vegetables and the remaining dressing that you set aside earlier. Toss together well. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Dish onto warmed plates. Sprinkles with a few pinches of sesame seeds and serve.
