Chicken Bang Bang
This is my adaptation of a recipe I found on the BBC website. The preparation can be very therapeutic, there's nothing better at the end of a stressful day then beating the hell out of some innocuous chicken breasts.
INGREDIENTS
Nutrition- 1 1⁄2lbs poached chicken breasts
- 3ounces rice noodles, broken into small pieces
- 3
- 1bunch coriander
- 3 1⁄2ounces smooth peanut butter
- 2tablespoons light soy sauce
- 1tablespoon runny honey
- 1teaspoon chili oil
- 1tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1teaspoon dry sherry
- 1
DIRECTIONS
- Beat the chicken breasts with a rolling pin to loosen the fibres.
- Shred the chicken with two forks.
- Pour very hot water over the noodles and soak for 5 minutes.
- In a food processor, blend the garlic, coriander, peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, chilli oil, vinegar and sherry and blend until smooth.
- Divide noodles between four serving plates, top with cucumber strips, then the chicken.
- Drizzle with peanut sauce without smothering it.
- Garnish with extra coriander leaves and serve.
