Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 ounces Egg noodles
- 2 medium Carrots
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons Minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, chopped
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the noodles are cooking, slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. Season with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced carrots, bell pepper, and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.
In a small bowl, mix the chicken broth with the cornstarch and soy sauce until smooth. Pour the mixture into the skillet and stir well, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Return the cooked chicken to the pan, tossing it with the vegetables and sauce until everything is well-coated and heated through.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss gently to combine. Let the dish cook for another 2 minutes to ensure the noodles absorb the flavors.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions for a fresh finish.
