Instructions

  1. Slice the chicken breast thinly. Slice a few garlic cloves thinly and julienne some ginger, then add them to the chicken as part of the marinade (or grate the ginger finely if you prefer it milder).
  2. Season the chicken with 1/3 tsp salt, 1/2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine, black pepper to taste and 1/3 tsp baking soda, sprinkling evenly. Mix well and set aside.
  3. Prepare the vegetables: carrot, bell pepper, mushrooms, snow peas and scallions, or use a pack of pre-cut mixed vegetables.
  4. Mix the sauce: 1.5 tbsp soy sauce, 1.5 tbsp dark soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp hoisin sauce, 1 tbsp Chinese cooking wine, 1/2 tbsp peanut butter and 1/2 cup water, stirring thoroughly.
  5. Boil the noodles until 80% cooked, then drain completely without overcooking.
  6. Heat a wok over high heat until smoking hot. Stir the chicken for 2 minutes or until it just changes colour. Add all the vegetables except the scallions and stir for 1 minute.
  7. Add the drained noodles and the sauce. Stir over medium heat until all the sauce is absorbed, then turn off the heat immediately to stop the noodles sticking.
  8. Add the scallions and toss well.
