CHILI GARLIC CHICKEN AND RICE

Steps:

• Put the rice on to cook in plenty of lightly salted boiling water. It will take about.
• 12 minutes, so start cooking the stir-fry about 8 minutes before the rice is ready.
• Heat the oil in a wok or large frying-pan and add the chicken strips. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes, then add spring onions and mange-tout peas or sugar snap peas. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes.
• Add the chilli-garlic sauce and cook for a further minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Drain the rice, divide between four warm bowls or plates and pile the chicken and vegetable mixture on top. Garnish with chives and serve at once.
• Cook's note 1: Use a combination of white and wild rice for extra interest.
• Cook's note 2: If you can't find chilli-garlic sauce, add a crushed garlic clove to the stir-fry and use ordinary chilli sauce instead.
