Sweet Chilli Chicken with Garlic, Lemon and Coriander.

Make a marinade with a tsp grated fresh ginger, a Tbs sweet chilli sauce, 2 cloves of garlic, crushed, the zest of a lemon and a lime,
a Tbs chopped coriander leaves, a pinch of salt and pepper and 2 Tbs olive oil. Slice chicken breasts into strips and mix well with
the marinade, cover and leave for an hour. When ready to cook, heat olive oil in a frying pan until hot and fry onions cut top to bottom
into thin crescents, until starting to turn translucent, then add the chicken and continue to cook until starting to caramelize on the
underneath, then turn over and continue to brown on the other side. Stir in any marinade left and a splash of water to moisten,
then add separated bok choy leaves, stirring to wilt and cover with the pan juices. Serve with rice garnished with chopped spring onions.

There are other differences in nomenclature, too. Spring onions are scallions, corn flour is corn starch, for example, but I won't get into the differences in pronunciation!

Yes, we use the same word for both the plant and the seeds in the UK - it's easier that way! Cilantro is just Spanish for coriander.

It does sound and look delicious! One thing that could confuse is the coriander, which for some recipe I searched literally everywhere, until I finally looked it up and realized it was just cilantro, available in pretty much in any store here.
