Serve with steamed rice. I use the green parts of the spring onions to stir through the steamed rice at the end of cooking.
500 g chicken breast fillet, cut into strips
3 tbsp groundnut oil
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 tsp cornflour
2 tbsp oyster sauce
3 cm ginger, cut into thin matchsticks
2 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced
4 spring onions, white parts sliced (green parts saved to stir in rice – see note above)
200 g sugar snap peas, halved on the diagonal
Toss the chicken strips with 1 tbsp of oil, cornflour and bicarbonate of soda. Cover and marinate in the fridge for half an hour.
Heat a wok over a high heat, add the remaining groundnut oil. Spread the chicken into the pan, season with salt and do not stir for 1 minute. Stir the chicken for a couple more minutes. Stir in the oyster sauce, cook for 30 seconds then transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl.
Lower the heat under the wok, add the ginger, garlic and spring onions, stir fry for i minutes. Add sugar snaps and cook for a further 1 minute stirring all the time. Stir in the chicken and stir fry for 30 seconds. Tip onto a serving platter and serve with steamed rice.
