Instructions
Instructions:
- Cook the ramen noodles:
- Cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside. Discard the seasoning packet, as we’ll be using a homemade sauce.
- Prepare the stir-fry sauce:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), rice vinegar, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside.
- Cook the chicken:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- Stir-fry the vegetables:
- In the same skillet, add the onions, bell peppers, carrots, and broccoli. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Add garlic and ginger:
- Add the minced garlic and ginger to the vegetables and stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Combine chicken and ramen:
- Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet along with the cooked ramen noodles. Pour the stir-fry sauce over everything and toss to coat. Continue to cook for 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and the noodles have absorbed the sauce.
- Serve and garnish:
- Serve the Chicken Ramen Stir Fry hot, garnished with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro or green onions for an extra burst of flavor.
