Ingredients
  

  • 4 skinless, boneless Chicken breasts
  • 9 oz/250 g cobs Baby corn
  • oz/250 g Snow peas
  • 2 tbsp Corn oil
  • 1 tbsp Sherry vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tbsp Light soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Corn seeds

Instructions
 

  • Using a sharp knife, slice the chicken breasts into long, thin strips.
  • Cut the baby corn in half lengthwise and top and tail the snow peas.

  • Add the chicken breasts to the wok and stir-fry over a fairly high heat for 1 minute.
