30 minutes · Serves 2
Familiar shopping, satisfying portions and a little variety for the week.
If stir-fried chicken is familiar, miso adds a rounded savoury flavour to the pan sauce.
Here’s how.
- 1
Start the rice and sauce
Cook rice following the packet. Mix miso, syrup, vinegar and half the measured water in a small bowl.
- 2
Brown the chicken
Heat oil in a wide non-stick pan. Cook chicken over medium-high heat for 7–8 minutes, turning.
- 3
Steam the broccoli
Add broccoli and the remaining measured water. Cover, reduce heat to medium and cook for 4–5 minutes, until broccoli is tender and chicken reaches 74°C / 165°F.

Glaze and serve
Uncover, add the miso mixture and stir over low heat for 1–2 minutes until everything is coated. Add a splash of water if the sauce is too thick. Serve over rice.
Turn the heat down before adding miso and syrup so the sauce does not catch.
