Ingredients

Scale

8 oz noodles (lo mein, spaghetti, or rice noodles)

1 lb boneless chicken breast or thighs, cubed

3 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp oyster sauce

2 tbsp brown sugar or honey

1 tbsp rice vinegar

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water

3 tbsp vegetable oil

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

3 green onions, sliced

1 tbsp sesame seeds


Instructions

1. Cook noodles according to package instructions; drain and set aside.

2. Heat oil in a skillet. Add chicken and cook until golden brown; remove and set aside.

3. In the same pan, sauté garlic until fragrant. Stir in soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, vinegar, and chili flakes.

4. Mix cornstarch with water; add to sauce and simmer until glossy.

5. Return chicken and noodles to the skillet. Toss well until coated.
