Spicy Firecracker Chicken Stir Fry

Prep Time10 Minutes

Cook Time25 Minutes

Ingredients

2 tablespoons neutral oil

500g chicken breast, diced

1 red pepper, cut into large chunks

1 yellow pepper, cut into large chunks

200g sugar snap peas

100ml SuperValu Signature Tastes Soy & Ginger Sauce

3 tbsps honey

2 tbsps sriracha

2 tbsps tomato puree

1 tbsp sesame oil

3 garlic cloves, finely grated

½ tsp ground black pepper

2 packs SuperValu basmati rice, pre-cooked

3 spring onions, sliced

100g cashew nuts, toasted and roughly chopped

Coriander leaves

Directions

In a small bowl, whisk together the SuperValu soy & ginger sauce, honey, sriracha, tomato paste, sesame oil, garlic, and black pepper. Set aside.
Set a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat, add a drizzle of oil, and when hot, add the chicken pieces in an even layer. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until lightly browned, about 4–5 minutes.
Add the peppers and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cook the rice according to the packet instructions.
Once the vegetables are tender, add the sugar snap peas to the pan and pour the sauce over the top. Mix well, ensuring everything is coated, and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce has thickened and the sugar snap peas are tender – about 2–3 minutes.
Serve in bowls with the rice, and top with sliced spring onions, toasted cashew nuts, and some coriander leaves.
