How to make Marmite and cheese puff pastry bites

  1. This is a quick recipe so start by prepping everything in advance. Cut the chicken and broccoli into bite size pieces and season to taste with salt & pepper.
  2. In a bowl, mix the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, honey and water. You could optionally add some chilli powder. Adjust quantities to taste.
  3. Heat around a teaspoon of oil over a medium heat in a wok or large frying pan.
  4. Add the broccoli and stir fry for around 3-4 minutes until tender. If cooking from frozen, allow more time. Remove and set aside.
  5. Carefully give the pan/wok a wipe down with a paper towel and then heat another teaspoon of oil over a high heat.
  6. Fry the chicken until golden all over. Don’t crowd the pan – if you’re cooking for more than one you might have to do this in batches.
  7. Add back the broccoli and stir in the sauce.
  8. Fry for a further 1-2 minutes, ensuring chicken is fully cooked through.
  9. Serve either alone or with fluffy rice.
