Recipe Method
- Toss the chicken with 1 tablespoon cornstarch to coat. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce tossing to evenly coat all the chicken pieces.
- Leave to marinate for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce. Combine the remaining ⅓ cup soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, vinegar, crushed red pepper flakes, and a pinch of pepper. Add ⅓ cup water and the remaining 1 tablespoons cornstarch, whisking until combined and smooth.
- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add ½ the chicken and cook for 5-10 minutes until brown. Repeat with the other half of the chicken and set the chicken aside but do not clean the pan.
- Cook the cauliflower rice.
- Add another splash of oil to the chicken pan. Add the garlic, ginger, and spring onions, and cook for 5 minutes or until fragrant. Stir in the soy sauce mixture and bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the peanuts.
- Serve the chicken and sauce over bowls of cauliflower rice. Top with additional peanuts and spring onions.
