Description
Savory Chicken Teriyaki Noodles is a flavorful dish featuring tender chicken, fresh vegetables, and udon noodles tossed in a delicious teriyaki sauce.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces of udon noodles
- 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
- 1 cup of broccoli florets
- 1 cup of sliced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/2 cup of sliced carrots
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup of soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons of water
- 1 teaspoon of sesame oil
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the udon noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the broccoli, bell peppers, and carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and cornstarch mixture. Pour this sauce over the chicken and vegetables in the skillet.
- Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken and vegetables.
- Add the cooked udon noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until well combined. Drizzle with sesame oil and mix again.
- Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
- For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with tofu or tempeh and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
- Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick or include other vegetables like snap peas or mushrooms for added flavor and nutrition.
