Method
- To make the marinade, mix together the soy sauce, garlic and ginger, add the chicken and set aside. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes in the fridge if you have time.
- Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions. Drain well and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok or large frying pan and stir-fry the chicken and marinade for 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add 1/2 tbsp oil to the pan (if necessary) and fry the onion, spring onions, pepper and broccoli for 3-4 minutes, or until the onion is soft and the pepper and broccoli are tender. Add the cooked chicken and noodles and continue to stir-fry until piping hot. Remove from the heat, add extra soy sauce to taste and serve immediately.
