Ingredients

  • 380g pack 2 chicken breasts fillets, butterflied
  • 3 tbsp Cooks’ Ingredients Korean Inspired Bibimbap Sauce
  • 200g pack buckwheat soba noodles
  • ½ x 200g pack baby leaf greens, chopped
  • 500ml Cooks’ Ingredients Chicken Stock
  • 30g piece ginger
  • 2 tsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp kimchi, roughly chopped
  • ½ x 20g pack chives, chopped

Method

  1. Put the chicken breasts into a bowl or dish large enough to comfortably hold them. Add the bibimbap sauce and toss to coat. Cover and set aside to marinate in the fridge for least 30 minutes, or ideally a few hours.

  2. Boil the noodles for 5 minutes, adding the greens for the final 3 minutes, then tip into a sieve and refresh under cold running water. Set aside to drain. Pour the chicken stock into a saucepan. Bash half the ginger, then add to the stock, cover and bring to a simmer.

  3. Put a griddle pan over a medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken, cook for 3-4 minutes per side until nicely charred and cooked through with no pink meat and juices that run clear. Set aside for 5 minutes, then slicing. Peel and finely slice the remaining ginger into matchsticks.

  4. Divide the noodles and greens between 2 wide bowls. Remove the bashed ginger from the broth and discard, then stir in the soy, sesame oil and kimchi. Divide the broth between the bowls and top each with the chicken, sliced ginger and chives.

Cook’s tip

To butterfly a chicken breast, cut almost all the way through the middle from one side to the other, then open out like a butterfly.
