Method

1. Take the little fillet off the chicken breast, then slice the breast as if to butterfly it but keep going so you cut it in half flat-ways.
2. Put the three chicken pieces into a pan with the rice wine vinegar, 150ml of water, grated ginger and sweet chilli sauce.
3. Season well and poach on a high heat for about eight minutes, turning after five.
4. Use this time to prepare your vegetables.
5. Once the chicken is cooked, turn off the heat and lift the pieces out of the pan, retaining the poaching liquid. Stir the peanut butter into the liquid, with the chilli, basil, coriander, lime juice and two tablespoons of water. Mix well, taste and season.
6. Roughly shred the chicken and mix everything together in a big bowl, thoroughly coating it all with the dressing. Finish with a handful of peanuts.
