To make the dressing, combine the ingredients in a small bowl and set aside. Prepare the mint (tear it into smaller pieces) and slice the green onion. Peel the cucumber with a veggie Julienne-peeler. Add the noodles, mint and green onions to a bowl and pour the dressing on top. Gently toss the noodles to cover them in the dressing. Top with sesame seeds and serve fresh.On a large sheet of grease proofpaper, toss the chicken with salt, pepper and the five-spice. Fold over the paper, then bash and flatten the chicken to 1cm thick with a rollingpin. Place on the hot griddle pan, turning after 3 or 4 minutes, until nicely charred and cooked through. Drizzle the honey over the charred chicken, squeeze over the juice of 1 lime, scatter with the sesame seeds and toss to coat.
