Crispy Shredded Sesame Chicken
INGREDIENTS:
 
SERVES 4
 
•     3 chicken breasts, sliced into strips
•     2 tbsp cornflour
•     ½ tsp chilli flakes
•     1 tsp ground ginger
•     Spray oil
 
For the sauce:
•     3 garlic cloves, crushed
•     3 thsp soy sauce
•     2 tbsp honey
•     1 tbsp sesame oil
•     2 thsp reduced sugar ketchup
•     2 tbsp rice wine/white wine vinegar
•     1 tsp cornflour
 
To garnish:
•     2 scallions, finely sliced
•     ¼ tsp sesame seeds
 
METHOD:
 
1. If not using an airfryer, preheat the oven to 200°C.
2. In a bowl, toss your sliced chicken with the cornflour, chilli flakes and ginger.
3. Pop the chicken in the airfryer at 190°C for 15 minutes with a spray of oil until brown and crispy, or lay out on a baking tray with a spray of oil and cook in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
4. While the chicken is cooking, get on with the sauce. Spray some oil into a wok over a medium heat, add the garlic, and fry off for 1 minute. Mix all the remaining ingredients for the sauce (except the cornflour) in a little bowl and pour into the wok. Stir and heat through until it starts to bubble gently and thicken; if it needs a little help to thicken up add in the cornflour mixed to a paste with a little water.
5. Add the crispy chicken into the sauce until nicely covered and glossy and continue to heat through for 2-3 minutes.
6. Sprinkle over the scallions and sesame seeds and serve with some boiled rice.
