Yin Ya Chi Ssu is a really quick and simple South East Asian recipe using chicken and beansprouts. Serve with soy sauce and medium hot chilli sauce on the side. Serves 4-5

Ingredients

• 700g chicken breast or thigh, thinly sliced Thai-style

• 4 tbsp oil

• 300g packet bean sprouts

• 1 tbsp corn flour

• 2 tbsp rice wine or dry sherry

• 1 tsp ground pepper

• 2 tbsp soy sauce

Recipe

1. Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl. Add the soy sauce, pepper, rice wine, corn flour and egg white, and mix well.

2. Heat 3 tbsp oil in a wok or large pan, and quickly fry the bean sprouts for about a minute. They need to still be crunchy. Remove from wok and set aside.
