Description
This Chicken Noodle Stir Fry is a quick and satisfying dish packed with tender chicken, vibrant vegetables, and perfectly cooked noodles, all tossed in a savory sauce.
Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, sliced
1 bell pepper, sliced
1 zucchini, sliced
2 cups cooked noodles (any kind)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Salt and pepper to taste
Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Once done, remove the chicken and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the onion, bell pepper, and zucchini. Sauté the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
- Add the minced garlic and ground ginger to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the cooked noodles along with the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Toss everything together to coat evenly.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and mix well, allowing everything to heat through.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the stir fry with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and fresh cilantro, if desired.
Notes
For a vegetarian option, swap the chicken for tofu or tempeh.
Add red pepper flakes, sriracha, or a chopped chili pepper for a spicy variation.
Experiment with additional veggies like mushrooms, broccoli, or carrots.
Use any type of noodles, such as rice noodles, egg noodles, or soba noodles.
Leftover stir fry can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
If reheating, add a little extra sauce to prevent the noodles from drying out.
