Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups cooked yakisoba noodles
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

  1. In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the onion, carrot, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
  4. Slice the cooked chicken into thin strips and add it back to the skillet with the vegetables.
  5. Add the cooked yakisoba noodles to the skillet and toss to combine with the chicken and vegetables.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup. Pour the sauce over the chicken and noodle mixture.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is well coated and heated through.
  8. Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions.
  9. Serve hot and enjoy!
