Description
A vibrant and flavorful Chicken Ramen Stir Fry loaded with colorful vegetables and chewy ramen noodles, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 packs of ramen noodles
- 1 lb chicken breast, thinly sliced
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, carrots, broccoli)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the ramen noodles: Begin by boiling water in a pot. Once boiling, add the ramen noodles, and cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-4 minutes. Drain and set them aside.
- Heat the pan: In a large skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
- Sauté aromatics: Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan. Sauté for about 30 seconds until they release their fragrant aroma.
- Cook the chicken: Introduce the sliced chicken breast to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the chicken turns golden brown and cooked through, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Add vegetables: Toss the mixed vegetables into the skillet, stir-frying for another 3-4 minutes until they become tender but remain crisp.
- Combine sauces: Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce. Stir well to coat the chicken and vegetables in the rich, savory sauces.
- Mix in the noodles: Once everything is well-combined, add the cooked ramen noodles to the skillet. Use your wooden spoon to gently toss everything together until heated through, about 2 minutes.
- Season to taste: Add salt and pepper to your liking, adjusting for that perfect balance of flavor.
- Garnish and serve: Just before serving, sprinkle chopped green onions on top, adding a fresh touch that visual appeal adds.
