Quick easy and delicious. Serve with a nice semi-sweet German white wine. Don't throw away the broccoli stem! When all the florets are off, pull off the tough outer skin of the stem leaving the tender core, then slice and cook with the florets.

Ingredients
2 servings
1 Tbspgroundnut oil
200gbroccoli
split into small florets
2chicken breast
cut into 1 cm cubes or small slices
1 Tbspplain flour
seasoned with salt, pepper and 1 tsp Chinese 5-spice
1 tsphoney
1 Tbspmedium-sweet sherry
1 Tbspdark soy sauce
120gmedium egg noodles
dry weight
stem ginger
Thumb-sized, sliced
spring onions
sliced, optional
Instructions
Step 1
Prep all the ingredients before starting cooking so that everything is at hand and ready.
Step 2
Cook the noodles according to the instructions on the pack
Step 3
Heat 1/2 the oil in a wok until hot, add the broccoli and stir fry for a couple of minutes, then add a splash of water, cover with a lid, and steam for 5 minutes (not too long, you want it with a bit of crunch), then remove the lid and allow the water to evaporate. Tip the broccoli onto a plate and drizzle with a little sesame oil.
Step 4
Meanwhile coat the diced chicken with the seasoned flour. Easiest and least messy to do this by putting chicken and flour in a plastic bag
Step 5
When all the broccoli water has evaporated, heat the remaining oil in the wok and stir-fry the coated chicken until almost cooked through. Add the spring onions if using and stir fry 2 minutes.
Step 6
Drain the noodles, reserving any soaking water
Step 7
Add the sliced stem ginger to the chicken then stir through the honey, sherry and soy sauce and allow to bubble for a couple of minutes until it thickens. If it's too thick, add some of the soaking water from the noodles
Step 8
Add the drained noodles and the broccoli to the mixture in the wok and stir fry until heated through. Add more noodle water if you like a more liquid sauce.
