1
  • Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, smash cucumbers until they split open on the sides, then roughly chop.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt.

  • Thinly slice carrot into rounds. 
  • Chop broccoli (including stalk!) into small florets.
  • Thinly slice garlic.

3
  • Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water.
  • Cook udon noodles over medium-high heat, gently stirring with a fork to separate, until tender, 1-2 minutes.
  • Drain, rinse and set aside.
4
  • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Cook broccoli and carrot, tossing until almost tender, 5-6 minutes.
  • Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
  • TIP: Add a dash of water to the pan to help speed up the cooking process.
5
  • Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat, add the chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes.
  • In the last minute of cook time, add Asian BBQ seasoning and cook, until fragrant, 1 minute. 
  • Reduce heat to medium, add sauce mixture, cooked veggies and noodles, tossing to combine, 1 minute. 
6
