Cooking Instructions and Tips

Put a large saucepan of water with a pinch of salt on to boil for the noodles. Meanwhile, trim the spring onion and then thinly slice. Peel and grate the ginger and garlic (or use a garlic press). Halve the red chilli lenghways, deseed and finely chop. Trim the green beans then chop into thirds. Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook for 4 mins. Drain in a sieve.

Meanwhile, pop the ginger, garlic, chilli (use less if you don't like spice!), soy sauce, honey and sesame seeds into a small bowl and mix together.

Pop a frying pan on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add the chicken along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until browned, 5 mins. If your pan is small, cook the chicken in batches as you want it to fry rather than stew. Add the green beans and half the spring onion. Stir-fry for a further 5 mins.

When your chicken is cooked through and your beans are tender, pour the sauce made in step 2 into the pan. Important: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink in the middle. Stir together and cook for 1-2 mins, then add the cooked noodles. Toss together and cook for another minute until everything is nicely combined and piping hot.

Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all) and roughly chop the peanuts (or pop them in a freezer bag and bash them with a frying pan - depending on your mood!).

Serve your noodles and chicken in bowls with the a sprinkling of coriander, peanuts and the remaining spring onion. If you have any leftover chopped chilli, sprinkle that on too for a bit of kick. Enjoy!
