Ingredients

• 450 grams chicken breast, thinly sliced
• 400 grams yakisoba noodles
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 medium white onion, thinly sliced
• 2 cups green cabbage, shredded
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 3 stalks scallions, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1.5 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the yakisoba noodles and cook for 1-2 minutes if fresh (or according to package instructions). Drain the noodles and rinse them under cool water. Set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, Worcestershire sauce, mirin, sugar, and sesame oil. Whisk until the sugar dissolves and set the sauce aside.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken slices and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the white onion, shredded cabbage, julienned carrot, and scallions. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and stir-fry for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the cooked yakisoba noodles and pour the prepared sauce over the top.

Step 7

Toss everything together for 2-3 minutes, ensuring that the noodles, chicken, and vegetables are evenly coated in the sauce and heated through.

Step 8

Remove from heat and transfer the yakisoba chicken to serving plates. Garnish with sesame seeds, if desired, and serve immediately.
