3. Cut the chicken into thin strips and toss in the cornflour and 1/4 tsp salt.
4. Lightly crush the cashew nuts. Toast in a dry pan for a few minutes until golden. Watch closely as they can burn quickly.
5. Boil a large pot of water for the noodles and broccoli. Boil the noodles for 4 minutes until just cooked and add the broccoli for the last 2 minutes. Drain, run under cold running water and put back in the pan covered with cold water.
6. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for approximately 5 minutes until crispy and cooked through. Remove from the pan.
