Ingredients
Scale
Protein and Noodles
- 300g Chicken Breast, thinly sliced
- 200g Rice Noodles
Vegetables
- 1 Bell Pepper, chopped
- 1 cup Broccoli Florets
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 2 Green Onions, sliced
Sauce and Seasonings
- 100ml Teriyaki Sauce (natural)
- 2 Garlic Cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Vegetarian Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Thinly slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Chop bell peppers, julienne the carrot strips, cut broccoli into florets, and slice green onions. Mince the garlic and grate fresh ginger to have all ingredients ready for cooking.
- Cook the Noodles: Boil rice noodles according to package instructions until just tender. Drain thoroughly and toss with a little sesame oil to prevent sticking.
- Sauté the Chicken: Heat a splash of sesame oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and fully cooked, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and set aside, keeping warm.
- Stir-Fry Vegetables: In the same pan, add minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped vegetables. Stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp and fragrant.
- Combine Sauce and Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the pan with the vegetables. Pour in the natural teriyaki sauce and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce. Toss to combine evenly. Add the cooked rice noodles and gently mix to coat everything thoroughly with the sauce.
- Garnish and Serve: Finish with a sprinkle of sliced green onions and an optional drizzle of sesame oil. Serve hot and enjoy a flavorful, satisfying meal.
Notes
- Use fresh garlic and ginger for the best flavor.
- Do not overcook the rice noodles; cook them slightly underdone to avoid mushiness.
- Stir-fry vegetables and chicken on high heat to ensure a nice sear and keep vegetables crisp.
- Add sauce gradually to prevent overpowering the noodles, adjusting to taste.
- Optionally sprinkle toasted sesame seeds at the end for added crunch and aroma.
