Ingredients

Sauce:

  • 6 T (1/4 C + 2 T) Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 1.5 T Cornstarch
  • 1/2 C Water or substitute with chicken stock
  • 1/2 t Better than Bouillon Chicken omit this if you used Chicken Stock
  • 1.5 T Rice Vinegar
  • 6 T (1/4 C + 2 T) Brown Sugar
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced

Stir-Fry:

  • 4-5 packets of Ramen Noodles Maruchan is my favorite discard flavor packets
  • 1.5 T Oil I use avocado
  • 2 T Oyster Sauce
  • 2 t cornstarch
  • 1 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast chopped
  • ½ bag Frozen Haricots Verts Extra-Fine Green Beans
  • Additional cooking oil for heating up in wok 2-3 T

Instructions

  • Mix up oil, cornstarch and oyster sauce until you have a paste. Thinly slice up your chicken and toss in the paste, set aside to lightly marinade.
  • In your small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, cornstarch, water (or chicken stock), chicken bouillon, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and garlic. Set aside.
  • Get water boiling for your ramen + heat 1 tablespoon of oil in your wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • According to the package instructions, cook the ramen noodles saucepan (I usually undercook a minute, I don't want it to get too mushy). Drain the water.
  • Add oil to the pan and stir-fry the Haricots Verts (green beans) for 3-4 minutes, or until tender but still crisp.
  • Pour the prepared sauce into the pan with the green beans. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Add the cooked chicken and drained ramen noodles back to the pan. Toss everything together until well combined and heated through.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
