Instructions
1
- Boil a large pot of water. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, 8-10 mins. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Transfer the chicken out of the pan and cover to keep warm.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice the scallion.
- Juice half the lime and cut the rest into wedges. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Trim then grate the carrot (no need to peel). Trim the pak choi, then thinly slice widthways.
- Cook the noodles in the boiling water until warmed through, 1-2 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop them sticking together.
3
- Return the pan to a high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- When hot, add the pak choi, garlic and carrot with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until tender, 3-5 mins.
- In a bowl, stir together the lime juice, soy sauce and peanut butter.
- Add half the scallion.
- Loosen with a splash of water.
4
- Whisk 1 egg (double for 4p) in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Shift the veg to one side of the pan.
- Pour the whisked egg into the empty side of the pan and gently stir to create a scrambled texture.
- Stir-fry everything together for 2-3 mins.
5
- Add the chicken and sauce to the pan and mix well.
- Gently toss the drained noodles in the sauce.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
6
