Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil Can substitute with neutral oil if desired.
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce Use low-sodium if watching salt.
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar Or a splash of lemon juice.
  • 2 cups chicken broth Low-sodium preferred.
  • 8 oz egg noodles
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch Optional - mix with 1 tbsp water to make a slurry.
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes Optional for heat.
  • Chopped green onions for garnish
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Method
 

Cooking
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chicken strips in a single layer and cook for 5–6 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  3. Lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic to the same pot. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  4. Pour in 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, and 2 cups chicken broth. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add the 8 oz egg noodles to the simmering liquid. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 7–8 minutes until the noodles are tender and have soaked up the flavor.
  6. If a thicker sauce is desired, whisk 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1 tablespoon cold water to create a slurry. Stir this into the pot and simmer for another 1–2 minutes until it thickens.
  7. Return the cooked chicken to the pot and toss everything together to evenly coat the chicken and noodles. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
