Japanese Style Stir-Fry Noodles

Easy, and good. A little different.
These were the goals I had. This is a combination of a couple recipes. Probably closer to a Yakisoba dish since the sauce is a type of Yakisoba sauce, but i used some other technics also. I would say any kind of noodle/pasta could be used in this. Just don't cook it all the way initially since it will get some extra time in the sauce. I used chicken thighs here, but chicken breasts would work also.

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut your chicken up into pieces. I'm using a small size here, just my choice

  2. 2

    Place chicken in a bowl, grind some pepper on it if you wish.

  3. 3

    If you choose to, add some hot sauce, mix it up, if not using hot sauce, skip this step

  4. 4

    Add corn starch and mix it in well, set aside

  5. 5

    If you have to cook your noodles, do that now. I'm using a fresh udon noodle this time that does not require pre-cooking. Cook and set aside if you need to.

  6. 6

    Cut your cabbage into small pieces, I'm using napa cabbage here, but any cabbage should work

  7. 7

    Cut your onion into smallish dice

  8. 8

    Cut your pepper in a small dice. I don't like Bell pepper, so I am using a Hungarian wax pepper instead, any mild pepper should work.

  9. 9

    Slice your mushrooms. I'm using crimini here, but button or shitaki would work

  10. 10

    Just put all your veggies aside, together, it will be fine

  11. 11

    Chop your garlic, grate your ginger.

  12. 12

    Heat a strir-fry/skillet/wok on medium high heat, with a couple tablespoons oil.

  13. 13

    About like this.

  14. 14

    Add your garlic and ginger to the hot oil, stir for 1 minute

  15. 15

    Now as the veggies and stir

  16. 16

    Add all the sauce ingredients together and stir well, TASTE your sauce, adjust honey if you want it sweeter, set aside

  17. 17

    Once the cabbage just starts to Wilt, add your chicken, now frequent stirring is required

  18. 18

    Once your chicken is about half cooked, add the broth, stir until the broth is gone.

  19. 19

    Once your chicken is just cooked, about the time the broth is gone, add your noodles, stir them to heat, about 1-2 minutes

  20. 20

    Turn your heat down to medium low. Stir your sauce, add it in, stir. Heat until it bubbles and its the thickness you like.

  21. 21

    Serve, garnish with sesame seeds, green onion, cilantro or parsley

My wife is disabled, she has M.S. And she finds it hard to cook from her wheelchair. I like a variety of foods, but hate tomatoes, so you don't see too many of my recipes with tomatoes on them. Also both of us have type II diabetes, so high carb and sweet is usually not on the menu either. We have one married daughter, and one that now lives in the Seattle area. We live in Texas, USA with our two dogs.Sorry I have not posted in awhile. Been taking chemo and radiation. and it has taken some out of me. Doctor says it seems to be working, so there is that.
