Cook rice

Prep veggies

Make sauce
- Peel and mince 1 tsp ginger. In a small bowl combine the ginger, 1 tbsp soy sauce, ¼ cup sweet chilli sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp sesame oil and a splash of water.
Prep & cook chicken
- Dice 600 g chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle the chicken with 3 tbsp cornflour and toss to coat. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frypan on high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes, until golden but not cooked through.
To finish
- Add the carrot, broccoli and baby bok choy to the pan with the chicken and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until starting to soften. Then add the sauce and toss to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until sauce has slightly thickened and reduced. Roughly chop ¼ cup cashew nuts.
