    Salt and Pepper Chicken (serves 4)

    500g chicken thighs cut into bite size pieces

    1 egg beaten

    100g cornflour

    1 tsp. salt

    1 tsp. Chinese 5 spice

    1 onion diced

    5 spring onions chopped

    ½ tsp. chilli flakes

    1 tsp. cracked black pepper

    1 tsp. Chinese 5 spice

    1 tsp. MSG

    1 tsp. sea salt flakes

    3 red chillis sliced

    Method:

    1: Place the diced chicken into a bowl along with some salt and a beaten egg, mix well to coat. In a separate bowl, mix the cornflower and five spice, then dredge the chicken through until fully coated. Tap off any excess then fry the chicken in oil heated to 180 C for about four minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 75c. I like to do this in two batches as not to overcrowd the pan. Remove the oil and drain on some kitchen paper.

    2: Stir fry the onion and the white part of the spring onion for a couple of minutes, then add the crispy chicken, spices, MSG, chilli and green spring onion. Toss well then serve with a portion of fried rice.
