Description
A quick and comforting noodle bowl that combines bold garlic flavors, spicy heat, and tender chicken with crunchy broccoli.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
- 8 oz noodles (ramen, udon, or spaghetti)
- 2 cups broccoli florets, blanched or lightly steamed
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1–2 tsp chili flakes (to taste)
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar or lime juice
- 2 tbsp honey or brown sugar
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- Optional: sliced green onions, sesame seeds, lime wedges
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken slices for 2–3 minutes per side until golden.
- Remove chicken and set aside. Add sesame oil, garlic, and chili flakes to the pan and sauté for 30–45 seconds.
- Add noodles and sauce, then fold in chicken and broccoli. Toss until everything is coated in the sauce.
- Serve hot, garnished with green onions, sesame seeds, and lime wedges.
Notes
For a vegetarian option, swap chicken for tofu. Store sauce and noodles separately from broccoli to keep it crisp when reheating.
