Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1/3 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Stock
- 1 Tablespoon Rice Vinegar
- 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
- 3 cloves Garlic, chopped
- 6 ounces Ramen Noodles
- 2 Tablespoons Cooking Oil, divided
- 1 pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast, chopped
- 8 ounces Broccoli Florets
- 2 Green Onions, chopped (optional)
- 1 Tablespoon White Sesame Seeds (optional)
Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce and cornstarch until no lumps remain. Add chicken stock, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and garlic, then whisk until everything is mixed well.
- Heat water in the microwave or on the stove until steaming. Add ramen noodles and let soak until tender, then drain.
- While soaking, season chopped chicken with salt and pepper.
- Heat a wok or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and the chicken. Sauté until cooked through, about 4–5 minutes. Set aside.
- Return the wok to medium-high heat, add remaining oil, then add broccoli. Sauté until bright green and tender.
- Pour sauce into the pan and toss with broccoli. Cook until sauce reduces slightly, about 1–2 minutes.
- Add cooked chicken and noodles to the pan. Toss everything together to coat in the sauce.
- Remove from heat and add green onions and sesame seeds if using. Serve immediately.
Notes
Be careful not to overcook the broccoli; it should remain bright green and crisp. You can substitute chicken with shrimp or tofu for a different protein.
