Instructions

a) Meanwhile, eat a glug of oil in a frying pan on medium high heat.

b) While the pan gets hot, put the cornflour in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.

c) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

d) Heat a drizzle of oil in another large frying pan on a medium high heat.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the dish, though some found it too salty; consider reducing soy sauce or adding chilli for depth.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and straightforward to prepare, with the cornflour-coated chicken turning out well.
  • Suggestions: Add sesame seeds for extra flavour; consider including peppers in the main dish instead of separate rainbow veg.
  • Portions: With rainbow vegetables and a small starter, the meal comfortably fed three people.
