Simple Sesame Noodles + Chicken
By: Lissa @ shrinkingkitchen.com/
This dish has long been a favorite of my family, ever since I first drooled over it on the Pioneer Woman’s website. I ordered the ingredients online yesterday when we returned home from our Florida trip {Don’t judge, tired momma.}, and decided that since I love my husband so much, I would slave away all day in the kitchen for Father’s Day. {Not really, this dish is super-easy and quick, but he doesn’t have to know that.} The large amount of oils in this recipe has scared me away a bit since I began trying to trim my middle… so I challenged myself to lighten the noodles up a bit, while still maintaining the flavor. I also threw in some chicken to up the protein. Judging by the husband and four kids, the lightened up version is a total hit!
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 6 servings
Gather
12 oz whole wheat thin spaghetti pasta
1/4 C Soy Sauce
4 tsp Sugar
4 cloves Garlic
2 Tbsp Rice Vinegar
3 Tbsp Pure Sesame Seed Oil
1 1/2 tsp Hot Chili Oil
3 Tbsp Canola Oil
4 chopped Green Onions
2 Chicken Breasts, Boneless, Skinless
Step by step
Cut chicken breasts into bite-size chunks.
Cook thoroughly. (I added a dash of seasoned salt and fresh ground black pepper, as well as some garlic & onion powder)
Prepare noodles as directed.
While noodles and chicken are cooking, whisk together all other ingredients (minus the green onions).
Pour sauce over warm noodles and toss together, coating noodles.
Add in chicken and green onions, toss again.
Serve and enjoy!
