Ingredients:
• 4 chicken breasts (about 600g), trimmed and cut into 2-3cm cubes
• 2 tbsp plain flour
• 40g piece of ginger, peeled and finely grated
• 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 6 tbsp soy sauce
• 5 tbsp honey
• ½-1 lemon, juiced
• 1 tbsp sunflower, vegetable, rice bran or rapeseed oil
• Cooked rice and steamed broccoli, to serve (optional)
Instructions:
1. Tip the chicken into a bowl, sprinkle over the flour and some seasoning, and toss until the chicken is evenly coated.
2. Combine the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, honey, and half the lemon juice in a bowl.
3. Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok over high heat and fry the chicken for 3–4 minutes until lightly golden.
4. Tip in the honey sauce and stir-fry for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has reduced enough to coat the back of a spoon.
5. Taste for seasoning and squeeze over the remaining lemon juice, if needed, then serve with rice and steamed broccoli, if you like.
