Ingredients

• 500 grams Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 60 ml Soy sauce
• 50 ml Mirin
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 300 grams Egg noodles
• 1 medium Carrot, julienned
• 1 Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 3 stalks Spring onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger, mixing well to create the teriyaki sauce.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, pour in the prepared teriyaki sauce and bring it to a simmer. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry, then gradually add it to the simmering sauce, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens. Add the cooked chicken back into the pan, tossing to coat it in the sauce. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.

Step 5

Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 6

In another skillet or wok, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the julienned carrots and sliced red bell pepper, stir-frying for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 7

Add the cooked noodles to the vegetables and stir-fry for 2-3 more minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.

Step 8

To serve, divide the noodles and vegetables among four plates or bowls, then top with the teriyaki chicken. Garnish with chopped spring onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
