Heat sesame oil in a large non-stick frying pan in medium to high heat. Fry chilies, lime zest and sugar for 1 minute. Add chicken fillets and cook both sides until nicely browned. Pour in chicken stock and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Then cut chicken in large pieces.
Step 3
Prepare the dressing: Whisk all ingredients in a bowl until combined.
Step 4
Divide green beans, spinach and chicken in four plates, drizzle with the dressing and serve.
