Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz soba noodles
- 1 lb chicken breast (boneless, skinless)
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger (grated)
- 2 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 tbsp honey
- 0.5 tsp red pepper flakes
- 2 stalks green onions (sliced)
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to boil and cook the soba noodles according to package instructions, usually about 4-5 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside.
While the noodles cook, prepare the chicken by slicing it into thin strips.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, or until fully cooked and slightly golden. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets and 2 tablespoons of water. Cover and steam the broccoli for 3-4 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Remove the lid and let any excess water evaporate.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, honey, and red pepper flakes to make the sauce.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the broccoli. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring to coat evenly.
Add the cooked soba noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until the noodles are heated through and evenly covered in sauce.
Divide the soba noodle mixture into bowls. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
