Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts skinless, chopped into bitesized chunks
  • 1 tbsp sweet chilli dipping sauce
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 large red chilli finely sliced – remove the seeds if you don’t want it too hot, or add extra chilli if you’re a heat freak!
  • 1 half-inch sized piece ginger finely chopped
  • 1/2 clove garlic minced or finely chopped
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • 1 tbsp cornflour
  • plain flour
  • 75 ml cold water
  • Low calorie cooking spray

Instructions

  • Add flour to a large bowl, season with salt and pepper, and mix well. Coat the chicken with a light dusting of the mixture and set to one side.
  • Heat a heavy bottomed frying pan over a high heat, until as hot as possible. Spritz liberally with low calorie cooking spray.
  • Fry the chicken until it’s browned and looking slightly crispy. Remove from the pan and set to one side on kitchen paper.
  • Add the chilli, garlic, and ginger to the pan and fry for a minute.
  • Add the honey to the pan and allow to bubble for a minute.
  • Meanwhile, in a cup, mix the cornflour, lemon juice, chilli sauce, water, and soy sauce. Stir well.
  • Pour the cornflour mixture into the pan with the honey, and stir well. As the sauce comes to the boil, it will thicken to your desired consistency.
  • Add the chicken for the last minute of cooking, and ensure that it is piping hot and cooked through.
  • Serve and enjoy!
