Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 6 essential Waitrose British Chicken Thigh Fillets, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 20g fresh root ginger, finely grated
  • 1 bunch salad onions, finely sliced
  • tsp chinese five spice powder
  • 4 clove/s garlic, crushed
  • 2 red chillies, finely sliced
  • 2 tbsp shaoxing rice wine (or dry sherry)
  • tbsp less salt soy sauce
  • tbsp demerara sugar

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large wok or frying pan set over a high heat. Once smoking hot, add the chicken and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until browned in places. Add the ginger, the white part of the salad onions (reserve the green tops, to serve), five spice powder, garlic and ½ the chilli; fry for 3-4 minutes, until fragrant.

  2. Splash in the rice wine (or sherry), soy, sugar and 2 tbsp water. Boil rapidly for 6-8 minutes, stirring often, until everything is coated in a sticky glaze. Scatter over the reserved salad onion tops and chilli. Serve with steamed white rice and pak choi, if liked.
