Cooking instructions
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)
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add your diced chicken breast and mangetout
Tear in your white cup mushrooms with a pinch of salt and cook everything for 5 min or until starting to soften and brown
Meanwhile, combine your cornflour, hoisin sauce and soy sauce with 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] sugar and 100ml [150ml] [200ml] cold water
Whisk until smooth – this is your hoisin sauce
Add your ginger & garlic paste to the pan and cook for a further 2 min
Squeeze your pouch[es] of cooked brown long grain rice to separate the grains
Tear the top corner of the pouch[es] (just a little!) and put the pouch in the microwave for 2 min or until piping hot
Tip: If you're cooking two packets, pop them in together but increase the microwave cook time accordingly
Add the hoisin sauce to the pan and cook for 3 min or until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!) - this is your hoisin chicken
Trim, then chop your spring onion[s]
Serve the hoisin chicken with the cooked brown rice to the side
Garnish with the chopped spring onion and your toasted sesame seeds
Enjoy!
