How to cook deliciously - Fragrant lemongrass & coconut chicken stir-fry

1. Stage

Combine the lemongrass, ginger, garlic, lime juice, sugar, soy sauce, coconut water and chilli, if using, and set aside. Heat the oil in a wok or large, high-sided pan over a high heat and stir-fry the courgette and chicken for 4 mins until browned. Stir in the peas and coconut and cook for 1-2 mins, stirring well to ensure the coconut doesn’t burn.

2. Stage

Pour the lemongrass mixture around the edge of the pan, then stir in to combine. Continue to cook over a high heat for about 1-2 mins, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has reduced. Season to taste. Warm the rice following pack instructions, then serve with the stir-fry.
