Mix it up and use crinkle-cut knives, shaped cutters and speed-peelers to prepare veggies and fruit in interesting ways – my kids tend to devour them when prepped in a fun way.

About the recipe
This recipe demonstrates the principle of cooking hard and fast. I’m using chicken here, but you could try prawns, salmon or tofu instead – the key is to get everything lined up in order of cooking time, adding the ingredients that take the longest to the pan first. I’ve paired my chicken with broccoli, but feel free to add more veg, or mix it up with what you’ve got. Have fun with it.
Recipe From
30g unsalted peanuts
2 x 120g free-range skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons black bean sauce
150g medium free-range egg noodles
200g tenderstem broccoli
EASY SWAPS
Swap the chicken for prawns, salmon, tofu or simply more veg.
If you don’t have peanuts, use crushed cashews or a sprinkling of sesame seeds instead.
No broccoli? No worries. Use any green veg, thinly sliced.
On the noodle front, it’s up to you – use whatever you fancy, or have a rummage in the cupboard.
No black bean sauce? Have a go with hoisin.
