Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Shirataki noodles
- 150 grams Chicken breast
- 1 tablespoon Gochugaru (Korean red chili flakes)
- 1 tablespoon Gochujang (Korean chili paste, keto-friendly)
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for stricter keto)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 50 grams Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the shirataki noodles by rinsing them thoroughly under cold water for 2-3 minutes to remove any odor. Boil them in water for 2 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips or bite-sized pieces.
Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until they are golden brown and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium, then stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
In a small bowl, combine the gochugaru, gochujang, soy sauce (or coconut aminos), sesame oil, and chicken broth. Mix well to create the spicy sauce.
Pour the spicy sauce into the skillet with the cooked chicken and stir to coat the chicken evenly.
Add the prepared shirataki noodles to the skillet and toss them in the spicy sauce, ensuring the noodles are well-coated.
Reduce the heat to low and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the noodles and chicken. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the dish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Spicy Buldak Noodles!
