Step 1

Set your oven to 200⁰C/400⁰F on combination steam setting. If your oven has variable steam settings, use 30%. If not, don't worry! Just set to combi steam at the correct temperature and the oven will take care of the humidity.

Step 2

Mix all the ingredients except scallions in a baking dish where the chicken will fit snugly in a single layer (I use a large Pyrex dish – I love that it’s clear so I can see exactly what’s going on, and I can just put the lid on any leftovers without transferring to another container).

Step 3

Bake the chicken for 20 minutes, then sprinkle over the scallions and chilli flakes if using and serve hot with noodles and green vegetables. We generally use dried udon because they’re thick enough for the kids to handle easily and I always have them in the pantry. Fresh egg noodles would also be lovely.
