How we make it

Firstly, the chicken breast is marinated in honey and sesame oil for a few hours. Then we make a light sauce to coat the egg noodles by frying the garlic and ginger in sesame oil, then adding Chinese five spice, sherry, light soy sauce and a touch of palm sugar. To finish, the noodles are topped with stir fried red peppers, water chestnuts, sesame seeds and toasted cashew nuts.

Did you know: Chinese five spice is a mix of fennel, cinnamon, star anise, cloves and black pepper and adds a distinctive flavour to all your dishes. If you’re a fan then you must also try our Chinese Five Spice Ribettes for an irresistibly sticky starter.
