Instructions
- Mix Sauce.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add onion and garlic, cook for 1 1/2 minutes until starting to go golden.
- Add chicken and cook just until the outside mostly changes from pink to white.
- Add Sauce and cook for 1 minute until chicken is quite caramelised.
- Add carrot and capsicum, cook for 1 minute (chicken should now be nicely caramelised, see video).
- Push chicken and veg to the side to make enough space for the noodles. Add water, place noodles in water.
- When the water starts simmering on the edges, leave noodles for 45 seconds then turn.
- Leave for 30 seconds, then untangle the noodles, then toss through the chicken and veg.
- Add cabbage, toss for 1 minute until sauce reduces to coat the noodles and the noodles are cooked. (Note 6)
