1 medium carrot, julienned
1 cup snow peas, trimmed
1 cup broccoli florets
1/2 cup sliced red bell pepper
3 green onions, sliced
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, water, and crushed red pepper flakes. Set the sauce mixture aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add garlic and ginger and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add carrot, snow peas, broccoli, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables.
Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well and cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Add the cooked egg noodles and sliced green onions to the skillet. Toss everything together until noodles are evenly coated with sauce and heated through.
Remove from heat and serve immediately.
