SESAME CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI – A PERFECT FAKEAWAY!

to make sesame chicken and broccoli you will need:

• 2 chicken breasts, cut into cubes
• 1 broccoli, cut into small florets
• 1 red pepper, sliced
• 2 spring onions, finely sliced
• 1 garlic clove, minced (do it seconds with one of these!)
• 65ml light soy sauce
• 1tsp sesame oil (2½ syns)
• 1 tbsp honey (2½ syns)
• 2 tbsp sesame seeds – we used a mixture of white and black (1x HeB)

to make sesame chicken and broccoli you should:

• fill a saucepan with water and bring to the boil
• simmer the broccoli florets for two minutes, then drain and set aside
• heat a large frying pan (or wok) over a medium-high heat and add a little oil
• add the chicken to the pan in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes, until one side is golden
• stir fry for a few minutes more until the chicken is cooked through, then remove to a plate and set aside
• add a bit more oil to the same pan and whack the heat up to high
• add the spring onions and red pepper and stir fry for a few minutes until just starting to get black char-marks
• reduce the heat back to medium-high and stir in the garlic
• add the chicken back to the pan along with the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil and sesame seeds
• simmer for a few minutes until the sauce has thickened
• stir in the broccoli and serve over noodles or rice
