INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Place the chicken onto a plate, add the cornflour, salt and pepper, toss together to coat the chicken.

2. Add the oil to a wok and heat on high. When the oil is very hot, add in the chicken and fry for 5-6 minutes – turning a couple of times until lightly browned.

3. Add in the sugar snap peas and peppers and fry for a further two minutes

Check the chicken is cooked by taking a large piece and slicing in half. If it’s no longer pink in the middle, it’s cooked.

5. Stir through the chopped spring onions and the chopped chilli, heat for one more minute until they’re hot but still crunchy

6. Serve with rice or noodles.
