Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup sliced yellow onion
- 1 cup sliced green bell pepper
- 1 cup sliced carrots
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 8 ounces fresh yakisoba noodles
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
- Toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
- Add yellow onion, green bell pepper, and carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet.
- Add the yakisoba noodles to the skillet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, ketchup, sugar, and white pepper.
- Pour the sauce over the noodles and chicken. Toss everything together to coat evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until noodles are heated through and sauce has thickened slightly.
- Serve immediately, garnished with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Notes
- You can substitute chicken breast for chicken thighs if preferred.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like broccoli, mushrooms, or snap peas.
- Adjust the sauce ingredients to your taste – add more sugar for sweetness or more soy sauce for saltiness.
