Satay Chicken & Broccoli

This satay chicken & broccoli is so yummy but  does require a little bit of thought in advance, as the sauce tastes its best when allowed to sit for at least 10 hours (overnight) so the flavours can develop and intensify.

The list of ingredients looks long, but you just have to throw everything in a small saucepan and stir until it’s thoroughly combined.

I either mix it up the night before or in the morning and then you’re good to go come dinner time!

Feel free to add any extra vegetables you wish.

And if you are a vegetarian, this would taste delicious with a mixed selection of vegetables and tofu.
