Instructions for our Taiwanese Chilli Chicken Noodles

Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius/ 200 fan/ gas mark 6

1. Line a baking tray with foil (shiny side down) and place to the side.

2. Prepare the Taiwanese chilli by combining all the ingredients into a bowl and mixing well, set aside.

3. Prepare the Nam Jim sauce by combining all of the ingredients into a bowl and set aside.

4. To make the salt and pepper flour, combine all of the ingredients, besides the egg, in a large, flat bowl.

5. Crack and beat two eggs into a separate bowl.

6. Dip the chicken breast into the egg mixture until coated then into the salt and pepper flour mixture until coated well.

7. Place the chicken onto the baking tray. Place the tray into the oven for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.

8. Cook the noodles according to the instructions on the packet.

9. While the noodles are cooking, combine the remaining ingredients, apart from the carrots and coriander, into a large bowl. Once the noodles are cooked and drained, toss them into the peanut sauce until coated well. Mix in the carrots and coriander.

10. Steam the broccoli for 5-7 minutes until soft. Feel free to toss with some olive oil or sesame oil and a pinch of salt once cooked.

11. Once the chicken is cooked, using the back of a spoon or pastry brush, glaze the chicken in the Taiwanese chilli glaze. Feel free to slice the chicken into thin slices to serve.

12. To serve, spoon the noodles into a serving bowl then top with the glazed chicken and broccoli. Pour over some Nam jim sauce and garnish with spring onion, chilli and coriander. Enjoy!
