Chicken Teriyaki Stir Fry

It doesn't have to be chicken! Feel free to use prawns, beef, tofu, or just plain veg

You can't go wrong with a stir fry – all you need to do is chuck everything in one wok, mix, and serve!! Simple.

I highly recommend that you use my Teriyaki Sauce recipe for this dish – but if you're looking for a quick fix for dinner, you can also use a pre-bought teriyaki sauce.

There are two options for this recipe.

1. You can either buy pre-packed stir fry vegetables from a supermarket (this is what I do). It's a lot easier and less work if you're looking for a quick dinner.

2. However, feel free to use freshly chopped vegetables and add these to your stir fry instead. There is no limit to how much veg you put in – after all, vegetables are delicious and super nutritious! I've listed out some veg below that are great in stir fries.

INGREDIENTS

3 nests of wholewheat medium noodles

6-8 chicken thighs, roughly diced

Stir fry vegetables (I usually buy a pack from Sainsbury's which has all the veg pre-packed)

2-3 tbsp teriyaki sauce

2 tbsp sesame or stir fry oil

Pepper

1/2 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp sriracha sauce (add more if you're good with spice!)

if you want to use fresh veg, I would include the following:

Broccoli

Carrots

Pak Choy

Spinach

Red Pepper

Spring Onions

Snow Peas

METHOD

1. Start by cooking the noodles by following the instructions on the packet. Once the noodles have cooked, drain them using a sieve and drizzle a little bit of oil on them so they don't stick together whilst you make your stir fry. Leave aside.

2. Put a large pot or wok on medium heat and pour in 1 tbsp of oil. Once the oil starts to sizzle a little, add in the chicken and cook all the way through.

3. Pour in the teriyaki sauce and mix everything together. Once chicken has cooked and everything is combined, place chicken into a bowl and leave aside.

4. Put the rest of the oil into the wok and add in vegetables. Cook until they soften, then season with pepper and garlic powder.

5. Once vegetables are cooked, add the chicken back to the wok and mix everything together. Then add the noodles in and mix thoroughly.

6. Add in the siracha sauce and give everything a final toss before serving.
