Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 15g butter
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 500g chicken thigh fillets, sliced ***
  • 2 tbsp crunchy peanut butter
  • ½ tsp ground cardamom
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tbsp light soya sauce
  • 3 tsp honey
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 medium red pepper, chopped
  • 1 medium green pepper, chopped
  • 250g bean sprouts

Instructions

  1. Combine oil, butter, garlic and onion in a large shallow dish, cook on HIGH for 3 minutes.
  2. Stir in chicken, cover, cook on HIGH for 3 minutes. Stir in combined peanut butter, cardamom, cumin, soya sauce, honey and lime juice, cover, cook on HIGH for 3 minutes; stir once during cooking.
  3. Stir in peppers, cook on HIGH for 1 minute. Serve with the bean sprouts.

Notes

I have substituted the meat from a BBQ chicken in place of the thigh fillets and I omit the bean sprouts and serve with steamed rice. Using cooked chicken, I omit the “cook for 3 mins” step re the chicken as it is already cooked. I find the BBQ chicken gives the meal a lovely flavour and texture.
