Sticky Chicken With Capsicum & Greens
Ready in 20 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil
- 1 brown onion small, chopped
- 400 g chicken mince
- 2 cloves garlic very finely chopped
- 2 cm ginger piece very finely chopped
- 1 red capsicum or green capsicum, small, diced
- 1 bunch broccolini roughly chopped
- 1 cup green beans trimmed & roughly chopped
- white or brown rice to serve
- 3 spring onions finely sliced
Sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornflour
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup chicken stock low sodium
- 1/4 cup honey or pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds white
Instructions
- For the sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornflour and water. Add the remaining ingredients and whisk to combine. Set aside.
- Place a large frying pan or wok over medium–high heat, add the oil and let it heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 2–3 minutes. Add the mince and cook, using a wooden spoon to break it up into small pieces, for 3–4 minutes. Then add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, for 1–2 minutes.
- Add the red capsicum, broccolini and green beans and stir through for 30 seconds. Increase the heat to high and mix through the sauce. Next, let the mince cook, without stirring, for 2–3 minutes, so that it caramelises. It should darken and look more saucy. Stir everything through for the last 30 seconds and turn off the heat.
- To serve up: Place rice in bowls and spoon over the sticky mince. Top with the spring onion.
