Sweet-and-sour chicken and vegetables

Ingredients for 2 people:

• 4 slices chicken breast
• 1 yellow pepper
• 2 courgettes
• 3 carrots
• half an onion
• 1 lime
• soy sauce
• Emozioneolio – OPUS blend
• poppy or sesame seeds

Preparation:

1. Cut the chicken breast into strips and leave to marinate in the juice of 1 lime.
2. Thinly slice the vegetables and put them in a wok with a drizzle of Emozioneolio extra virgin olive oil.
3. Cook over high heat for about 10 minutes, moving the vegetables around the wok to prevent sticking.
4. Make an emulsion of soy sauce and Opus blend oil (70% soy sauce, 30% extra virgin olive oil).
5. Pour some of the emulsion over the vegetables and cook for a few more minutes.
6. When the vegetables are cooked but still crisp, remove from the wok and put on a serving plate.
7. Cook the chicken in the wok with its marinade, moving it frequently to prevent sticking.
8. After 5 minutes, add the remaining sauce and oil emulsion and cook for another 2/3 minutes.
9. Combine the chicken and vegetables on the serving plate, add poppy or sesame seeds and Opus blend extra virgin olive oil before serving.
