Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 8 oz dried noodles of choice ramen, udon, or spaghetti work well
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil or other neutral oil
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds for garnish
  • 2 green onions thinly sliced, for garnish
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 4 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water

Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet or Wok
  • 1 Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Whisk

Method
 

  1. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry.
  3. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken. Bring to a simmer. Whisk in the cornstarch slurry and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring, until the sauce thickens.
  5. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss to coat everything in the sauce. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
