Tip

For those of you having trouble with the chicken shredding it may be due to dicing it too small in the beginning. I generally dice it quite large (about 4cm x 4cm). I know when I dice it smaller it is a more shredded consitancy after cooking but the larger diced way doesn't have that problem. You could probably try it with the butterfly as well, that may help but I'm not sure.

Personally I like it either way, my kids much prefer it shredded so if it's just myself and them I will dice it small, if it's for other people I will dice it large. All tastes the same in the end.

Oh and if you want the sauce thicker you can not add the water, has a more syrupy sauce. (One of those happy accidents on busy night LOL) If I want to use noodles instead of rice I omit the water and it works quite well.

I also have found as long as you keep the ratio's the same  you can put alot less honey & soy in, I like the strong flavours and having lots of sauce so prefer to put the full amount in.

    Absolutely loved it. Sometimes it's hard to find the ratio for honey and soy, but this is delicious.

    I read the comments beforehand, cut my chicken in to large pieces but it still shredded to a tuna like consistently. 🙁 I didn’t add any water but the end result was still very soup / stew like. Thank you for your recipe.

    This was the first dinner I cooked in my thermomix. all the kids asked for seconds I nearly fell off my chair.

    Thank you for sharing this lovely meal idea

    quick and easy!

    i used the thick sweet soy sauce, less honey and 1/2 water quantity. Although next time I probably wouldn't use any water as half way through I added more cornflour. (I like thick sauces) definitely will make again

    thanks

    Nice flavour. This is a stew with chinese flavours. I thought there was too much liquid. I didn't add the paprika, I didn't think it needed it. The chicken cooked perfectly, it didn't shred, probably because I cut the chicken into very large pieces. I had to add more cornflour because it was like soup. I added some hokkien noodles and took out some of the liquid. The end result was perfect. My only regret would be I didn't have any sesame seeds and they would have complemented the dish perfectly, especially if they were lightly toasted. Yum!
