Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by preparing your ingredients. Chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces, and slice your chosen vegetables. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger until finely minced.
  2. In a large pot, bring water to a rolling boil. Add your noodles and cook according to the package instructions, usually around 6-8 minutes until they are al dente. Drain the noodles and toss with a splash of oil to prevent sticking.
  3. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Once the chicken is cooked, add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, gently tossing everything together. Pour in a mixture of honey and soy sauce, coating each noodle with the sticky sauce. Stir for about 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  6. If using vegetables, stir them into the skillet now and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp.
  7. Remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired.
