Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz ramen noodles
  • 1 lb chicken breast sliced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 bell pepper sliced
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 2 green onions chopped
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger minced
  • salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Large skillet or wok
  • Medium pot
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Spatula or wooden spoon
  • Colander

Method
 

  1. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions (usually around 3 minutes). Drain and set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken breast, seasoned with salt and pepper. Stir-fry until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
  3. Add remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Sauté minced garlic and ginger for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add sliced bell pepper and snap peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender.
  4. Return cooked chicken to the skillet with veggies. Add sweet chili sauce and soy sauce, stirring to coat evenly. Toss in cooked ramen noodles and chopped green onions. Stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes to heat through and blend flavors.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately while hot, garnished with extra green onions if desired.

Notes

  • Slice chicken thinly and cook quickly over medium-high heat to keep it juicy.
  • Drain noodles well and toss with a little oil before adding to the stir-fry to prevent clumping.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan; stir-fry veggies in batches to maintain crispness.
  • Substitute snap peas with seasonal veggies like asparagus, green beans, kale, or bok choy.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat gently in a skillet with a splash of water or broth.
