Sure, whipping up a honey-soy sauce at home is easy, but we've made it even easier by using a ready-made sauce. It's the ideal accompaniment to tender chicken breast, stir-fried veggies and fluffy basmati rice. Top the whole thing off with moreish crispy shallots and this will become a favourite - fast! *Keep an eye out... Due to recent sourcing challenges, we’ve replaced courgette with baby corn spears, which may be a little different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!*

Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Add basmati rice and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over a high heat until tender, 12 minutes. • Drain and return rice to saucepan, then add the butter. Stir until melted and set aside.
• Finely chop garlic. Roughly chop Asian greens and carrot. Trim and halve baby broccoli. Drain baby corn spears (see ingredients). • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook carrot, baby corn and baby broccoli until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add Asian greens and garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• Return the frying pan to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook diced chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Remove from heat, then add honey-soy sauce and toss chicken to coat.
• Divide basmati rice between bowls. Top with honey-soy chicken and garlic veggies. Spoon over any remaining sauce from the pan. • Sprinkle over crispy shallots to serve.
