Hoisin Chicken & Greens Stir Fry
Hoisin Chicken & Greens Stir Fry
I LOVE this recipe – it’s such a go-to of mine. I feel like I say that about every recipe, but we would have this once a week in our household. It has 10 ingredients, it’s heathy, it’s quick and it’s a meal we can share with our 4 year old (and not have to make two different dinners). Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 packet udon noodles
- 600 g chicken thighs bones & skin removed
- 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil for frying
- 3 cm ginger piece finely chopped
- 3 spring onions sliced
- 1 bunch broccolini roughly chopped
- 1 bunch choy sum roughly chopped
- 150 g snow peas roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup cashews chopped
Instructions
- Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to the boil. Cook the noodles as per packet instructions. Drain and run under cold water. Set aside.
- Slice the chicken thighs into pieces, trying to cut them in even sizes so they cook evenly. Place in a bowl and coat in half the hoisin sauce.
- Place a large frying pan over medium–high heat and add some peanut oil. Cook your chicken pieces for 3–4 minutes on each side. Don’t overcrowd the pan or they will stew – you may have to do two batches if cooking for four or more people. Once cooked through, transfer to a plate and set aside.
- In the same pan over high heat, add a little more peanut oil. Add the ginger and half the spring onion and sauté for about 2–3 minutes.
- Add the broccolini pieces and a little more hoisin sauce. Sauté for 2 minutes. Feel free to add a tablespoon of water if it’s getting too dry.
- Add the choy sum and snow peas and toss while cooking – about 2 minutes. Add the cooked chicken pieces and remaining hoisin and stir to coat.
- Add your noodles and mix through well. Serve in bowls and top with the remaining spring onion and chopped cashews. Enjoy!
