Delicious Sesame Noodles With Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
6
  • 8 oz spaghetti or noodles
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded (use rotisserie for convenience)
  • 1 cup cucumber, julienned
  • 1 cup carrots, julienned
  • 1 cup sesame oil
  • 1 cup soy sauce (low sodium recommended)
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp ginger, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • 2 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted (for garnish)
  • 1 red pepper, sliced (optional for spice)

  • 1 tbsp lime juice (freshly squeezed)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Cook the Noodles

    Boil water in a large pot and cook the spaghetti or noodles according to package instructions until al dente.

    Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare the Sauce

    In a bowl, whisk together sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey (if using), ginger, and garlic until well combined.

    Adjust the sweetness by adding more honey if desired.
  3. Combine Ingredients

    Drain the cooked noodles and rinse under cold water. In a large mixing bowl, combine noodles, chicken, cucumber, carrots, and bell pepper.

    Add the vegetables while still slightly warm to enhance flavor absorption.
  4. Add Sauce to Noodles

    Pour the prepared sauce over the noodle mixture and toss until everything is evenly coated.

    Use tongs for easier mixing.
  5. Garnish and Serve

    Serve the noodles in bowls, garnished with green onions, sesame seeds, and lime juice if desired.

    Add sliced red pepper for extra heat.
