Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
For the Sauce
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sriracha or more, to taste
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
For the Bowls
  • 8 oz noodles such as udon or spaghetti
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 head broccoli cut into florets
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds for garnish

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Pot

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, toss the chicken pieces with 2 tablespoons soy sauce, cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sriracha, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
  3. Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Add the broccoli florets to the skillet with the chicken. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
  6. Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  7. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss to combine with the chicken, broccoli, and sauce.
  8. Divide the noodle mixture among four bowls. Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds.

Notes

You can adjust the amount of sriracha to control the spice level. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or snap peas.
