One-pot Honey Garlic Chicken and Noodles

• total time: 1 hour 20 minutes

Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil

1 lb (450 g) chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 small onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup soy sauce (use low sodium if preferred)

2 tbsp hoisin sauce

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tsp sesame oil

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for spice)

8 oz (225 g) noodles (lo mein or spaghetti)

2 cups chicken broth

1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water

2 tbsp green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the garlic and onion. Sauté until fragrant and the onion becomes translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

Stir in honey, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Simmer for 2 minutes.

Add the chicken broth and uncooked noodles. Stir to coat the noodles in the sauce. Cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender.

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. Add the cornstarch slurry and let the sauce thicken for 1-2 minutes.

Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
