- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 cup Bean sprouts
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce, low-sodium

- 1 cup Boiled chicken breast, shredded

Instructions
Begin by preparing the Mie Goreng noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
Heat the sesame oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced onion and sauté for about 2 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Add the julienned carrot, red bell pepper, and green beans to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are just tender but still crisp.
Stir in the cooked noodles, combining them well with the vegetable mixture.
Pour in the low-sodium soy sauce and sweet soy sauce (Kecap Manis). Mix thoroughly, ensuring the noodles and vegetables are evenly coated with the sauces.
Add the shredded chicken breast and the bean sprouts to the skillet. Toss all ingredients together and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the chicken to warm through and the bean sprouts to soften slightly.
Drizzle with lime juice and mix well.
Garnish with chopped spring onions and optional sliced red chili for added heat, then serve hot.
