How to cook it

Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the caramel and pepper elements, and pat the chicken breast dry so it colours well.

Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Turn up the heat and add the chicken breast. Fry until deeply crisp and golden, then drain on paper and season straight away.

Stir in the hoisin and the rest of the caramel and pepper flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.

Add the peas along with a splash of stock or water, then cook briskly until everything is tender and the sauce clings.

Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
