Ingredients

For the Chicken

1 pound Chicken Use tender pieces for the best texture; pre-cooked chicken speeds up preparation.

For the Noodles

8 ounces Noodles Chewy texture is key; substitute with gluten-free noodles if necessary.

For the Sauce

1/4 cup Soy Sauce Provides a savory umami flavor; tamari can replace it for a gluten-free option.
2 tablespoons Honey Balances the sauce with a sweet note; can be adjusted to taste.
4 cloves Garlic Fresh garlic infuses aromatic depth; feel free to add more for extra boldness.
1 tablespoon Cornstarch Thickens the sauce; add more for a saucier finish.

For Cooking

2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil Used for a perfect sear; sesame oil adds a unique flavor twist if desired.

For Extra Flavor (Optional)

Vegetables Bell peppers, snap peas, or broccoli brighten the dish with nutrition and color; mix and match to your liking.

Equipment

Large Skillet

Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Pour 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil into a large skillet or pan and place it over medium-high heat. Allow the oil to heat until shimmering.
Carefully add your chicken pieces to the hot oil, spreading them out to ensure even cooking. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.
Add 4 minced garlic cloves to the skillet, stirring quickly. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant and just starting to turn golden.
Pour in 1/4 cup of soy sauce and 2 tablespoons of honey. Mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with a splash of water and add it to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Add in pre-cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing gently with chicken and sauce. Stir for 2-3 minutes until heated thoroughly and well combined.
Remove from heat and serve on plates. Garnish with sliced green onions or sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate chicken in the soy sauce mixture for 30 minutes before cooking. Use fresh garlic for the best flavor and avoid overcooking chicken to keep it juicy.
