Begin by preparing the shirataki noodles: rinse them thoroughly under cold water and boil them for 2-3 minutes to remove any residual odor. Drain and set aside.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add sesame oil and sauté the minced garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the sliced bell pepper and julienned carrot to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
Add the cooked chicken back into the pan along with the soy sauce, chili paste, and white vinegar. Stir everything together, ensuring the chicken and vegetables are well coated.
Mix in the shirataki noodles, and toss them until they are well incorporated with the sauce and vegetables.
Add salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in chopped green onions.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro leaves before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your Keto Chicken Hakka Noodles!
