Ingredients
  

MAIN
  • 440 g udon noodles or your choice of noodles
  • 300 g skinless chicken thigh fillets chopped into small pieces
  • 1 broccoli florets separated and cut into even sized pieces (280g / 9.8 ounces)
  • 1/2 small red bell pepper julienned (45g / 1.6 ounces)
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
  • cooking oil I use rice bran oil
SAUCE (MIX THESE IN A BOWL)
  • 2 Tbsp oyster sauce
  • 2 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 2 tsp sesame oil

Equipment

  • pan/skillet
  • Bowl

Method
 

  1. Marinate the chopped chicken in the sauce while you prepare the other ingredients. Set aside. Heat a pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and spread it thinly. Add the chicken and any remaining marinade. Cook until 60% of the meat is cooked, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  2. Boil the udon noodles according to the package instructions. Drain the water and set aside. It is best to start this step at the same time as step 1 to use fresh, warm noodles that are not sticky.
  3. Add the broccoli and red bell peppers to the skillet with the chicken. Stir and cook until the chicken is nearly fully cooked. Add the boiled udon noodles and stir occasionally. Once the chicken is fully cooked, garnish with sesame seeds and serve.
