fruit & nut chicken stir-fry

Given last night's extended drinking in the garden, this week's shopping order can't be done until this evening, which means tonight's meal is a bit of lottery based on what's in the fridge: chicken breasts, and a left-over green pepper from two weeks ago. A courgette from two weeks ago in the veg bowl, and some onions.

Somewhat surprisingly there's a recipe in the Black NZ Book which uses all of these plus dried apricots and a selection of Asian sauces - sweet chilli, oyster, fish and soy - all of which are lurking in cupboard - genius!
fruit & nut chicken stir-fryI did have to swap the Chinese five spice for Thai seven spice (what's two extra spices really?), we didn't have cabbage and peanuts stood in for cashews but brilliantly it tasted really nice. Amazing!
