Easy Chinese Recipes

Chinese cooking can be quick, hassle free and super tasty with our collection of recipes.

We have made some slight modifications to the process to make preparing these dishes quicker and super tasty.

Everyday Cashew Chicken

We've chosen the ingredients for this Cashew Chicken to be as readily available to most people as possible.

The Chicken pieces can be marinated just before cooking, however we strongly advise for longer periods of marination.

The rest of the process involves stir-frying the chicken pieces with the vegetables and sauce. Because we are using the stir-fry method for cooking, the process can be really quick.

Serve with your favourite peanuts or omit the nuts as you prefer.

Everyday Beef and Broccoli

Another one of those classic Chinese takeaway dishes. Who knew it can be done at home in no time?

As with any other Chinese dish, it's advisable to marinate the beef beforehand, especially if you are working with tough cuts of meat. In this case, the baking soda will help to tenderize the beef.

Cut the beef strips thinly so they cook almost instantly. Be careful not to overcook the beef as it can get tough otherwise.

Chinese Style Chicken Fried Rice

Having left over rice is perfect for this recipe. Stir-frying rice requires the rice grains to be slightly dry so you don't want to use freshly cooked-rice for this recipe.

You can marinate the chicken in as little as 30 minutes, preferably longer.

If you just want the rice, the skip the chicken-related ingredients.

Quick and Easy Chicken Lo Mein

Chicken Lo Mein is an egg noodle dish mixed witch marinated chicken, vegetables and a soy-peanut sauce.

We love the flavours in this dish, combining lots of umami with a bit of sweet, salty and sour.

There is a bit of ingredients used in this recipe, but it's worth keeping them in your cupboard.

Easy Kung Pao Chicken

If you are looking for something spicy and with a lot of kick, then you should try this King Pao Chicken recipe.

We use Szechuan peppercorns for this recipe which adds an interesting numbing effect to the dish which bring tingles down my spine just thinking about it.

This is also one of the more popular Chinese takeaway dishes, that you can definitely make better at home.
