Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 100 grams macadamia nuts
- 60 ml soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 150 grams broccoli florets
- 3 stalks green onions, sliced
- 300 grams lo mein or egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 60 ml water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, honey, water, and set aside.
Heat a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, stir-fry the chicken until golden and fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Stir-fry the garlic (minced) and ginger until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the carrots, red bell pepper, and broccoli to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Meanwhile, cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Return the cooked chicken to the pan with the vegetables. Add the prepared sauce and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Add the cooked noodles to the pan and toss everything together until evenly coated with the sauce.
Fold in the macadamia nuts and sliced green onions, mixing gently for an additional minute.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot and enjoy your Australian-inspired stir-fry noodles!
