Chickeny rice noodley thing!

 

This dish is a favourite of my gluten-free partner and myself. I really have no idea what you'd call it - we adapted this from a recipe in Jamie Oliver's 15 Minute Meals - sizzling steak and hoisin prawn noodle bowl, that we altered in order to make it gluten free! (And used chicken, we love chicken.) I haven't included amounts in this recipe, as it will depend on how many people you're cooking for, but common sense will dictate how much you need! The two ingredients in italics are the gluten-free alternatives we used. These are both available in Asda - any other brand of rice noodles or gluten free Soy sauce would work too; the brands mentioned here are just our favourites. 

Ingredients:
Sesame oil 
Sesame seeds 
Cashew nuts 
Coriander 
Garlic 
Red chilli 
Fresh Ginger 
Amoy Rice Noodles
Chicken breast 
Pre-cooked prawns
Lima Tamari Soya Sauce 
Chinese 5 spice 
Fresh lime

How-to: 
1. Toast the sesame seeds and cashew nuts in a little sesame oil in a frying pan until golden - leave to one side.
2. Season chicken with Chinese 5 spice. (Jamie's recipe calls for salt and pepper here, so use this to taste if you wish.) Fry chicken in sesame oil until cooked. 
3. Cook chopped garlic, ginger, chilli and half the coriander in frying pan. 
4. Add prawns, rice noodles and soya sauce to pan until all cooked through. 
5. Readd chicken, and squeeze juice of lime into the pan, stirring well.
6. Serve and add your toasted seeds and nuts to the top, along with some coriander.


And that's it! It's quick, relatively cheap and VERY tasty. Let me know what you think :)
