Chicken, veggies, and noodles stir-fried together, this will make a perfect one-pot meal for lunch or dinner…
This is one of my favorite noodle recipes and I make this quite often. I’ve only used a couple of sauces like soy sauce and hoisin sauce; these are always found in my refrigerator. These sauces add so much flavor to this dish. The key ingredient that enhances the flavor of this noodle stir fry is pure sesame oil- a little bit of sesame oil goes a long way. This is a must-add towards the end.
Do give this recipe a try, can be served for lunch or dinner, and the leftovers can be refrigerated.
