Description

A high-protein chicken stir fry with rice noodles, featuring fresh vegetables like bell peppers, broccoli, and shiitake mushrooms in a savory sauce made with soy sauce, ginger, and ketchup.


Ingredients

  • 12 ounces dry rice noodles
  • 1 pound chicken breast, sliced into strips
  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 4 ounces shiitake mushrooms, sliced
  • 0.5 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil


Instructions

  1. Soak or boil the rice noodles according to the package instructions until just tender, then drain and set aside.
  2. Whisk the chicken broth, soy sauce, ketchup, and cornstarch together in a small bowl to create the stir-fry sauce.
  3. Sear the chicken strips in a hot wok with oil until cooked through, then remove them and set aside.
  4. Flash-fry the peppers, broccoli, and mushrooms with the ginger for 3 minutes until vibrant and crisp-tender.
  5. Return the chicken and noodles to the wok, pour over the sauce, and toss everything together over high heat until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients.

Notes

  • This recipe is gluten-free if using tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • Adjust spice level by adding chili flakes if desired.
  • Serve hot with optional garnishes like green onions or sesame seeds.
