Ingredients
For the dish:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into thin strips
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 cup julienned carrots
- 1 cup sliced bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 8 oz egg noodles (or thin spaghetti)
- 3 cups chicken broth
For the sauce:
-
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Season and Sear the Chicken:
In a large skillet or wok, heat sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook for 4–5 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside. - Sauté the Vegetables:
In the same skillet, sauté garlic, ginger, carrots, and bell peppers for 3–4 minutes until softened but still crisp. - Combine the Base:
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, and chicken broth. Stir to combine. - Cook the Noodles:
Add the uncooked noodles directly to the skillet, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid. Cover and let simmer for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender and the liquid has mostly reduced. - Incorporate the Sauce:
In a small bowl, whisk together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and chili flakes. Pour the sauce into the skillet and toss until everything is well-coated. - Serve and Garnish:
Top the noodles with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for extra flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!
