FESTIVE GOLDEN FIVE-SPICE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together the marinade ingredients, put the chicken into a dish, then pour over the marinade, mixing to coat. Cover, then chill for at least 20 mins, or up to a day if you have time.
• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4, and lift the chicken out of the marinade into a roasting tin. Roast for 40 mins, pour over the remaining marinade, then cook for a further 30 mins until golden and sticky. Sprinkle with the spring onion, then serve.

CHINESE-STYLE PORK FILLET WITH FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Mix the pork medallions with the soy sauce and five-spice; leave to marinate for 5 mins. Heat a large non-stick pan, then fry the pork for 2-3 mins on each side until cooked through. Pour in 150ml boiling water with the honey and bubble for 2 mins. Mix the cornflour with a little water, stir into the sauce and cook until it thickens and is glossy.
• Meanwhile, make the fried rice. Pour the egg into a non-stick frying pan to make an omelette, cooking for 2 mins on each side. Remove, roll up, and cut into thin strips. Add the rice to the pan with the peas and stir-fry for 3-5 mins until piping hot, then gently stir through the omelette with the spring onions and seasoning and cook for 1 min. Serve with the pork and a dash more soy sauce.

CHINESE FIVE SPICE PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, Chinese five spice, black pepper, red pepper flakes, sugar, and sesame oil. Whisk together well. Add in half of the green onions. Put half of the marinade in a small sauce pot and whisk in the corn starch.
• Place the trimmed pork tenderloin in a ziplock baggie and pour in the remaining marinade. Massage the marinade into the pork and refrigerate for one hour or overnight.
• When ready to cook, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Remove pork from the refrigerator and let it get to room temperature. Heat a heavy cast iron skillet or oven-proof pan on high until slightly smoking. Add the pork tenderloin to the pan and sear both sides, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer the pan to the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes, until an internal temperature reads at least 145 degrees. Let the pork rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, bring the reserved marinade to a roiling boil. Lower the heat to low and thicken sauce for 2 minutes. Pour the sauce over the pork. Sprinkle the pork with the remaining green onions.
• Serve with a side of your favorite rice.

Add the rice and cook, stirring often, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the oyster sauce and cook, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add the corn and peas and stir together.
