Ingredients

  • 140g Chicken Thigh
  • 130g soba noodles
  • 80g pak choi
  • 80g mushrooms
  • 15g miso paste
  • 5g ginger
  • 5g honey
  • 3g sesame oil
  • 5g sesame seeds

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the pak choi and mushrooms, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Boil the soba noodles for 4-5 minutes, then rinse in cold water to remove starch.

  3. 3

    Toss the chicken thighs in half the sauce and roast at 200°C (180°C fan) for 22-25 minutes, until caramelised at the edges and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Whisk the miso, grated ginger, honey and sesame oil with a tablespoon of warm water. Brush over the protein and drizzle the rest over the bowl.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the pak choi and mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: soba noodles first, then the veg and chicken thigh, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the sesame seeds.
