3. Cook the rice to pack instructions and drain well.

4. Meanwhile, remove the chicken from the marinade and sprinkle over the cornflour. Put a large non-stick wok or frying pan over a high heat. Stir-fry the chicken in three batches, using one teaspoon of oil for each batch.

5. Heat the remaining oil in the wok and stir-fry the onion for one minute. Add the rest of the vegetables and stir-fry for two minutes. Then, add two tablespoons of water and stir-fry for another minute, or until the veg is tender. Return the chicken to the wok, add the remaining soy sauce and cook until heated through.
