  • 4 medium slices of chicken breast (600 gr) cut into thin strips
  • 2 sliced garlic cloves
  • 1 package Shinoki mushrooms, separated from the base and coarsely chopped
  • 2 small onions finely copped
  • 1 cup sunflower sprouts
  • 4 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • Fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Handful of chopped cashew nuts
  • Salt
Method:

Cook the rice in boiling water (like pasta) until it is soft enough to eat and reading for sautéing with no further cooking.  Strain.

Heat the olive oil in a wok/ wide, heavy-based skillet and sauté the onion and garlic in the oil.  Add the chicken strips and fry until almost done.  Add the mushrooms, bean sprouts and rice, and pour over a little water to scrape up the residue from the base of the wok.  Mix, add the sweet chili and continue to stir fry for 5 minutes.  Taste and season as necessary.

To serve:  garnish with fresh cilantro and chopped cashew nuts
