Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Before you begin...
Get all your ingredients and equipment ready
Skim through these steps, then wash your fruit and veg
Take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Note: Equipment and pan sizes vary. Make sure you cook food thoroughly (even if it takes you a little longer than 10 min)
Now let's get started!
Boil a kettle
Add your wholewheat noodles to a pot with a pinch of salt and cover them with boiled water until fully submerged
Bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for an initial 3-5 min or until cooked with a slight bite
While the noodles are cooking, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add your diced chicken breast and cook for an initial 5-6 min, then add your ginger & garlic paste for 1 min further and cook until starting to brown
Trim, then chop your spring onion[s] into large bite-sized pieces
Chop your Tenderstem broccoli in half
Once the chicken is starting to brown, add the chopped spring onion and cook for a further 5-6 min or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!)
After an initial 3-5 min, add the halved Tenderstem broccoli to the pot with the noodles and cook for 2 min further or until tender with a slight bite
Once cooked, drain the noodles and Tenderstem and reserve a cup of the starchy noodle water
Meanwhile, add your cornflour to a bowl with 2 tsp [3 tsp] [4 tsp] cold water and stir to dissolve
Add your sriracha, chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), tomato ketchup and soy sauce
Add 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] vegetable oil with a splash of the reserved starchy noodle water and a pinch of sugar and give everything a good mix up – this is your chilli sauce
Once the chicken is cooked, add the drained noodles, Tenderstem broccoli, chilli sauce and cashew nuts and stir it all together – these are your chilli chicken breast cashew wholewheat noodles
Tip: Add a splash of the starchy noodle water if it's looking a little dry
Serve up your chilli chicken breast cashew wholewheat noodles and tuck in
Enjoy!
