There's so much to love about this delicious chicken and tofu satay stir-fry, especially as it's ready in just 15 minutes.
This mouthwatering meal is packed with fresh veg and bags of flavour! It's made using Passage To Asia Satay Chicken Stir-Fry Sauce, which means as well as lots of tasty Thai basil, chilli, ginger, lime and garlic, this dish also benefits from a delicious, slightly sweet, peanut-based sauce.
I love making curries and stir-fries from scratch and always recommend experimenting with cooking whenever you can. But when time is short and taste buds are in need of something special, a good store-bought sauce can help instantly kick fresh ingredients up a notch or two.
And that's just what Passage Foods' range of sauces aim to do; making cooking up speedy curries and stir-fries a breeze.
Here's how to make my chicken and tofu satay stir-fry.
Ingredients
- 300g (10.6 oz) rice
- 2 tbsp groundnut oil
- 500g (17.6 oz) chicken breast. diced

- 1 red pepper, de-seeded and sliced
- 5g (0.2 oz) fresh Thai basil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2cm (1 inch) fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
- 1 fresh red chilli, de-seeded and finely chopped
- 200g (7 oz) Passage To Asia Satay Chicken Stir-Fry Sauce
- 1 fresh lime, cut into wedges
- 1 tbsp chopped peanuts
Instructions
Set your rice on to cook so that it’s ready to serve with your stir-fry. Heat the oil in large pan or wok over a high heat. Add the chicken and tofu.
Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the chicken is sealed.
Add the beans, carrot, red pepper, Thai basil, garlic, ginger and chilli.
Stir-fry for a further 2-3 minutes.
Pour in the stir-fry sauce and toss through.
Reduce the heat to low and stir for 2-3 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully cooked through.
Serve immediately with the rice, sprinkle with the chopped peanuts and add a wedge of lime.
