What a burst of flavour this was. So much better for you than the take away and you can probably make it quicker than it would take to pick it up. The sauce is so authentic and something you can knock up at home in minutes.
Serve with white rice, prawn crackers and a glass of chilled white.

4 chicken breasts

Method
Dice up your chicken and rub over your marinade. Set aside while you chop up all your peppers and onions.
Pan fry your chicken in your hot sesame oil for 5 minutes, moving round the pan all the time.
Now add your diced peppers and onions and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Mix up your sauce, pour over and bring to the boil for a couple of minutes to thicken.
