  • 2 broccolini bunches cut into thirds

  • 2 medium carrots cut into half moons

  • 3 green shallots thinly sliced

Step 1. In a small boil, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, oyster sauce, cornstarch and set aside


Step 2. Add a splash of olive oil to a large pan over high heat, then add the chicken and cook for between 8-10 mins or until golden brown

Hi, really keen to start food prepping as a busy full time working mum and teacher! Can I ask if all 4 servings could be stored in the fridge to take to work each day? Or should I freeze them?

Thank you 😊
