Step-by-step
- Cut the chicken breasts into strips and place in a large bowl.
- Add the olive oil, ginger, sweet chilli sauce, garlic, lemon and lime zest. Season with a good pinch of salt and pepper and finally add the chopped coriander. Mix well and leave in the fridge to marinate for 1 hour.
- Heat a wok over a high heat.
- Add the chicken pieces by hand. Don’t stir them around the wok at this stage as they need to caramelise straight away.
- Once the pieces are golden brown on one side, turn the strips and cook on the reverse until golden brown and cooked through.
- Add the pak choi leaves just before you are ready to serve and stir in well.
- Remove from the heat and divide between 2 plates. Garnish with a baby herb salad and spoon over the pan juices.
