Ingredients

See recipe for serves 4 here

  • 3 teaspoons reduced salt soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons Thai chilli jam
  • 1 tablespoon crunchy or smooth peanut butter (see tip)
  • 2 teaspoons lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon brown sugar
  • 250 g chicken breast fillet, cut into thin strips
  • 3 teaspoons sunflower oil
  • ½ onion, sliced
  • 1 small carrot, halved lengthways, thinly sliced
  • ½ large red capsicum, chopped
  • 100 g green beans, trimmed, halved
  • 100 g brown rice vermicelli
  • Lime wedges, to serve

Method

Step 1

Combine soy sauce, chilli jam, peanut butter, lime juice, sugar and 1 tablespoon water in a small jug. Mix well. Set aside.

Step 2

Place chicken in a bowl. Add oil and toss to coat. Heat a non-stick wok over a high heat. Add chicken and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until just cooked. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

Add onion, carrot and 2 teaspoons water to hot wok. Stir-fry for 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Add capsicum and beans. Stir-fry for a further 2 minutes.

Step 4

Return chicken to wok with sauce mixture. Stir-fry until combined and hot.

Step 5

Meanwhile, cook noodles following packet instructions. Drain. Serve stir-fry and noodles with lime wedges.

Tips

  • Choose peanut butter made from 100% peanuts with no added sugar and no added salt.
  • For a shortcut, replace chicken breast fillets with 250 g chicken breast stir-fry strips.
  • You can use soba noodles instead of brown rice vermicelli or replace noodles with ½ cup cooked brown rice per serving, if preferred.
