    Ingredients

    2 tbsp soy sauce

    2 tsp fresh ginger, grated

    1 garlic clove, crushed

    1 tbsp honey

    2 tbsp lemon juice

    4 chicken breasts, cut into 3cm cubes

    300g long grain rice

    150g frozen peas

    150g frozen sweetcorn

    1 tbsp sunflower oil

    2 spring onions, trimmed and sliced

    Method

    1
    Mix the soy sauce, ginger, garlic, honey and lemon juice in a bowl. Add the chicken, cover with cling film and marinate in the fridge for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours if you have time.
    2
    Rinse the rice and place in a pan, add 1.2L water. Bring to the boil and stir once. Cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes, stirring in the peas and sweetcorn for the last 5 minutes.
    3
    Thread the chicken cubes onto wooden skewers, brush lightly with oil and cook on a griddle pan for 3-5 minutes on each side until cooked. Alternatively, cook under a grill for 5 minutes each side. Cut through a cube to check they are cooked through.
    4
    Drain the rice in a sieve. Fluff up with a fork and stir in the spring onions. Serve with the chicken.
