Serves 4

Total cooking time 20 minutes

Ingredients:
4 small skinless chicken breast fillets
200 g (7 oz) mixed mushrooms
5 tablespoons soy sauce
finely grated rind and juice of ½ lime
1 chilli, sliced
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh root ginger
handful of chopped fresh coriander, to garnish
boiled jasmine rice, to serve (optional)

Method:
Set a large steamer over a saucepan of gently simmering water. Place the chicken and mushrooms in a shallow, heatproof dish that will fit inside the steamer. Mix together the remaining ingredients and spoon over the chicken.

Place the dish in the steamer, cover and cook for 15 minutes until the chicken is just cooked through. Scatter with coriander and serve with jasmine rice, if liked.

For soy-fried noodles with chicken & oyster mushrooms, heat a wok until smoking hot. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and 300 g (10 oz) thinly sliced chicken breast.

Stir-fry for 5 minutes, then add 1 crushed garlic clove, 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh root ginger and 200 g (7 oz) oyster mushrooms.

Cook for a further 2 minutes. Stir in 300 g (10 oz) ready-cooked egg noodles, 100 g (3½ oz) baby spinach leaves and 4 tablespoons soy sauce mixed with 1 tablespoon sweet chilli sauce. Heat through until piping hot and serve immediately. Total cooking time 10 minutes.
