From the sweet and savoury coating on the chicken thigh, to the loaded fried rice with an added depth of flavour from the bacon, this dish definitely rivals takeaway.

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with the boiling water. • Add basmati rice and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over high heat until tender, 12 minutes. Drain. • Thinly slice spring onion. Trim green beans and roughly chop. Slice lemon into wedges (see ingredients). Cut chicken tenderloin into 2cm chunks. • Drain sweetcorn. • In a small bowl, combine the honey, sesame seeds, juice from the lemon wedges and half the soy sauce mix.
• Heat a large frying pan to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook diced bacon, corn and green beans, breaking up bacon, until golden, 5-7 minutes. • Stir in cooked rice, garlic paste, spring onion, remaining soy sauce mix and then crack the egg into the pan. Cook until warmed through and egg is cooked, 2-4 minutes. • Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• In a medium bowl combine cornflour and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Add chicken, tossing to coat. • Wipe out frying pan and return to high heat with a generous drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, dust off any excess flour from chicken. • Cook chicken in batches, tossing, until browned and cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. • Return all chicken to pan. Add sauce mixture and cook, tossing, until coated and heated through.
• Divide bacon, egg and veggie fried rice between bowls. • Top with sticky sesame lemon chicken. Spoon over sauce from pan to serve. Enjoy!
