Chicken Ramen

Step 1

Follow package directions to cook the ramen noodles. Discard seasoning packets. Drain noodles and toss with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Set aside.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and heat over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger. (I grate fresh garlic and ginger on a microplane or if I'm in a hurry I use ginger paste. If sensitive to ginger feel free to reduce) Saute for about 2 minutes until soft. Add the red bell pepper, broccoli, and mushrooms. Saute for 3-5 minutes or until crisp-tender.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, sriracha (to taste; we add in all 3 teaspoons but it does have a bit of heat!), and brown sugar. Whisk until combined and set aside.

Step 4

Cut the chicken into small bite-sized pieces. Season chicken(both sides) with salt and pepper to taste. Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the chicken to the other side. Cook the chicken, stirring until no longer pink, about 2-3 minutes depending on the size of the pieces. Now combine everything and pour the sauce over it all; stir.

Step 5

Add drained noodles on top and toss with tongs until noodles are coated in sauce and all ingredients are incorporated in. Add a few drizzles of sesame oil to taste. Add toasted sesame seeds, green onions, and cilantro as desired. Enjoy immediately.
