  • Soak the broccoli in boiling water, covered, for 5 mins. Drain well. Meanwhile, cook the chicken for 4 mins in 1 tbsp of oil. When golden, remove from the pan with a slotted spoon. Toss the mushrooms into the pan and cook for 3 mins, then add the garlic, ginger, spring onion and a dash more oil, and cook for 4 mins more. Return the chicken to the pan and stir in the curry powder. Cook for a minute more to combine.
  • Add the stock and miso paste to the chicken mixture. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 mins, adding the broccoli for the final 3 mins of cooking time. Season with soy sauce and serve with steamed rice - delicious!
