Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Shirataki noodles
- 200 grams Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 small Red chili, sliced
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoons Kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)
- 1 teaspoons Fish sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons White pepper
- 100 grams Bean sprouts
- 2 stalks Spring onions, sliced
- 100 grams Cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1 wedge Lime
- 1 tablespoons Coconut oil
Instructions
Rinse the shirataki noodles thoroughly under cold water. Drain well and set aside.
Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
Heat half of the coconut oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and scramble them. Once cooked, remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining coconut oil. Add the minced garlic and sliced red chili, stirring until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the chicken pieces to the pan and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the sliced cabbage and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Lower the heat to medium and add the shirataki noodles to the pan, tossing to combine with the chicken and vegetables.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, kecap manis, fish sauce, and white pepper. Pour this sauce over the noodles mixture and toss well to ensure everything is coated evenly.
Add the scrambled eggs back into the pan along with the bean sprouts and spring onions. Toss everything together and cook for another 2 minutes.
Transfer the Mi Goreng to serving plates and garnish with a wedge of lime. Squeeze lime juice over before serving for additional flavor.
