Instructions
Preparation
- Cook the noodles according to package instructions, usually taking about 6-8 minutes. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
- In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat until shimmering, approximately 1-2 minutes.
Cooking
- Add the sliced chicken to the hot pan, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally.
- Once browned, add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for another minute until fragrant and soft.
Combining
- Mix together the soy sauce and honey in a small bowl. Pour this mixture over the chicken and allow it to bubble and reduce for about 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Toss the cooked noodles into the pan along with 1 teaspoon of sesame oil. Stir well to ensure all the noodles are coated in the sauce.
Serving
- Remove the pan from heat and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve hot.
