- Cook the Mayflower chicken in batter according to packet instructions until crispy.
- In a bowl, whisk together the orange juice, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, chilli flakes and orange zest.
- Heat a wok or frying pan over a medium-high heat and add a little oil. Stir fry the sliced peppers and onions for a few minutes until just softened.
- Pour in the sauce mixture and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Mix the cornflour with a splash of cold water to create a slurry, then stir it into the sauce. Cook for a few minutes until thick, glossy and sticky.

- Serve with egg fried rice and finish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and sliced spring onions.
