Stir Fry Noodles

Savory noodles tangled with chicken and crisp vegetables make a bowl that's easy to look forward to. Hoisin gives the sauce a gentle sweetness, with ginger carrying a warm flavor through each bite. The soft egg pieces add another texture among the long strands.

A few quick notes

1. Keep noodles firm

Drain the noodles while still very al dente so they can finish becoming tender in the skillet.

2. Brown chicken separately

Cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, then remove it before the vegetables go in.

3. Finish the eggs fully

Keep tossing after adding the eggs until they are cooked through and the noodles are tender.

Get to know the ingredients

Chicken

Thinly slice breasts or thighs, then cut into bite-sized pieces before tossing with the first soy sauce portion.

Vegetables

Thinly slice the vegetables so they can brown and soften while keeping some crisp texture.

Green onions

Reserve a quarter of the sliced green onions for finishing while the rest flavors the sauce mixture.
