Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breast
• 8 oz Egg noodles
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 4 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp Ginger, minced
• 1 large Carrot, julienned
• 1 Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 cup Snap peas, trimmed
• 3 tbsp Soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Hoisin sauce
• 1 tsp Sriracha (optional)
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 2 Green onions, chopped
• 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped
• 1 Lime, cut into wedges

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts lightly with salt and pepper, then cook for 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet, let rest for a few minutes, and then slice into thin strips.

Step 3

In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the julienned carrot, sliced red bell pepper, and snap peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sriracha (if using), and chicken broth. Pour this sauce mixture into the skillet and stir to combine.

Step 6

Add the cooked noodles and sliced chicken to the skillet. Toss everything together gently, ensuring the noodles and chicken are coated in the sauce and warmed through.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the dish with chopped green onions and cilantro.

Step 8

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for added freshness and zing. Enjoy!
