What You’ll Need 
2 x Chicken Breast Fillet
Chicken, Free Range, Breast Fillet 2 x 150gm, Boneless Skinless, 300
200g Kale
120g Carrots
120g Capsicum

2 Cloves of Garlic
25mL Maple Syrup
60mL Teriyaki Sauce
1 Tsp Sesame Seeds
1 Tbs Vegetable Oil
1 Tbs White Wine Vinegar
10ml sesame oil
Method:

Prepare teriyaki marinade

Preheat the oven to 200C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Finely chop or crush the garlic. Peel and finely grate the ginger. Combine the garlic, ginger, teriyaki sauce, maple syrup and vinegar in a bowl.

Marinate chicken

Cut the chicken into 3cm chunks, then add to the bowl with the teriyaki mixture and mix until well coated. Set aside to marinate for 10 mins.

Prepare ingredients

Meanwhile, tear the kale leaves into bite-size pieces, discarding stems and place in a large bowl. Toss through the sesame oil and season with salt.  Roast kale in the oven for 10 mins or until wilted and crisp in parts. Meanwhile, peel and cut the carrots into 5cm matchsticks. Cut the capsicum cheeks in 1cm slices, discarding the seeds and membrane.

Stir-fry chicken

Heat half the oil in a large frypan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sauce to the pan. Stir-fry the chicken for 4-5 mins until just cooked. Transfer the chicken and sauce to a bowl.

Stir-fry vegetables

Heat the remaining oil in the same pan and stir-fry the carrots for 2 mins, then add the capsicum and stir-fry for a further 1 min.

Get ready to serve

Return the chicken and sauce to the pan and toss to combine. Divide the kale among bowls and top with the chicken and vegetables. Spoon over sauce and scatter with the black sesame seeds.
