Preparation
1
Cook the Rice

a) Boil a full kettle.
b) When boiling, pour the water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.
c) Drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

2
Prep Time

a) Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the red onion.
b) Halve the green pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
c) Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

3
Fry the Chicken

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
b) Pop the diced chicken breast into a bowl with the cornflour, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
c) Once the oil is hot, stir-fry the chicken until golden and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
d) Sprinkle on the Thai style spice blend. TIP: Add less if you don't like too much heat.

4
Add the Veg

a) When the chicken is cooked, add the red onions and peppers. Stir-fry until softened, 2-3 mins.
b) Lower the heat, then stir in the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and water for the sauce (see ingredients for amount) and coat the chicken well.
c) Bring to a bubble, then remove from the heat. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

5
Finish Up

a) Zest and halve the lime.
b) Mix the coriander and a squeeze of lime juice through the stir-fry.
c) When the rice is cooked, fluff it up with a fork. Mix in the lime zest. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

6
Serve

b) Share the rice between your bowls and spoon your spicy chicken on top.
c) Serve with a lime wedge for squeezing over. Enjoy!
