One Skillet Hoisin Chicken Stir Fry Over Noodles
This is one of those "people who know me Know I am obsessed over Chinese food" blog posts. Sometimes, we just don't have schedules that jive together so we cannot go out for dinner or pick it up. So, I am working on making homemade Chinese-inspired meals. This dish is my Hoisin chicken stir fry. We eat a lot of rice and pasta, so I decided to use noodles as the base of this dish. Normally, I use Ichi-Ban noodles or Udon noodles, but we picked up a bulk package of noodles so we will be using these for a heck of a long time. 😂
This is one of the packages of noodles. I used three packages. One was a regular ramen noodle package and the other two were Shin. Let's get to the recipe, shall we?
Ingredients
2 or 3 packages of your favorite Asian noodles or angel hair pasta (this will feed 2 to 4 people easily)
2 large chicken breasts or 4 - 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs, chopped
4 cloves garlic, sliced into slivers or finely chopped
1 large onion cut into thick slivers
3 scallion greens, cut on a bias or, angle
3 tablespoons Citrus Ponzu (shoyu)
2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons Garlic Chile Sauce
3 tablespoons smoked sesame oil
salt and pepper to season the chicken
This is an easy meal to make. Prep is the hardest part, but, there are a lot of working parts. Don't stress, it's easy.
Add the Garlic Chile sauce and smoked sesame oil to a large, wide skillet. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Add half of the garlic to the skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil begins to ripple, it's hot enough for the chicken. Stir the chicken after a couple of minutes and allow it to get a crust. At that point, add the coarsely chopped onion, garlic and the Hoisin and Ponzu sauces. Stir to incorporate fully. After about five minutes, the noodles will be done. Using a spider or like utensil, add the noodles and a 1/2 cup of the starchy water to the skillet and stir thoroughly. Turn up the heat to high. When the mixture begins to bubble, stir thoroughly and reduce the heat to simmer. Allow to simmer about 15 - 20 minutes to reduce the liquids.
Turn the heat up to high and reduce the sauce.
When the sauce reduces, add the noodles and incorporate thoroughly.
Add Ponzu and Smoked Sesame Oil to the bottom of your bowl.
Add halved hard boiled eggs and garnish with scallions and red pepper flakes.
Now, time to eat! Your noodles are soaking up all of the rich flavors!
