  • Author: yolanda
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Diet: Poultry

Description

A delightful combination of tender chicken, sticky sauce, and soft noodles that makes for a satisfying dinner, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breast or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1/2 tsp red chili flakes (optional)
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 8 oz noodles (rice noodles or egg noodles)
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes (if using) thoroughly to form a flavorful sauce.
  2. Toss the bite-sized chicken pieces with cornstarch until each piece is evenly coated.
  3. Warm the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the coated chicken to the skillet and cook for about 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and fully cooked through.
  5. Pour the prepared sauce over the cooked chicken and stir well to coat all pieces. Let the sauce simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until it thickens and becomes sticky.
  6. Meanwhile, cook the noodles according to the package instructions until tender. Drain and set them aside.
  7. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the sticky chicken and toss well to evenly distribute the sauce and chicken throughout.
  8. Sprinkle chopped green onions and sesame seeds (if using) over the top before serving hot.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking. You can customize this recipe by using shrimp or tofu instead of chicken. Adjust the spiciness level by varying the amount of red chili flakes.
