Method

  1. Heat the groundnut oil in a pan over a medium heat, add the shallots and cook until softened and golden, stirring occasionally. Stir through the Spicy Thai Mix and spring onions. Fry for a minute or so. Fold through the steamed jasmine rice and shredded chicken breast.
  2. Continue to cook, stirring, until the rice and chicken are piping hot. Stir through the soy sauce, then fold through the chopped herbs. Drizzle with sweet chilli sauce and scatter with chopped pistachios before serving.
