Ingredients
Instructions
Cook noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain, toss with 1 tsp oil, and set aside.
Combine chicken with marinade ingredients. Let marinate for 15+ minutes.
Whisk together all sauce ingredients (except the 1 tbsp cornstarch for slurry) in a bowl. In a small dish, mix the 1 tbsp cornstarch with 2 tbsp water to make a smooth slurry. Set both aside.
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok over high heat. Sear chicken until cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove to a plate.
Add another 1 tbsp oil to the wok. Stir-fry carrots and bell pepper for 2 minutes. Add cabbage and stir-fry 1-2 minutes more. Push veggies to the side.
Add final 1 tbsp oil to the cleared space. Add cooked noodles and bean sprouts. Pour the prepared sauce over top. Toss everything together for 1-2 minutes.
Return chicken to wok. Stir the cornstarch slurry and drizzle it over the stir-fry. Toss constantly for 30-60 seconds until sauce thickens and glazes everything. Add green onions and toss.
Serve immediately, garnished with extra green onions and sesame seeds.
