Ingredients

  • 250 gm noodles parboiled see notes
  • 250 gm boneless chicken cut up in to small chunks see notes
  • 1 cup sliced Mushrooms any of your choice - 75 gms
  • 40 gm thinly sliced Chilies 3 serrano green chilies + 3 Fresno red chilies
  • 1 whole garlic finely chopped 30 gm
  • white root of 2 green onions sliced finely
  • 1/4 cup sesame oil or vegetable oil
  • 2 1/2 cup sliced bellpeppers - 235 gms I used red, yellow and green

Sauce

  • 2 tablespoon Honey
  • 2 1/2 tablespoon ketchup or tomato paste
  • 2 1/2 tablespoon Dark Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon Hoisin sauce
  • 1/2 cup Reserved noodle water see notes

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix all the ingredients mentioned under "sauce"and set aside.
  • Use a large wok or a large pan to prepare this recipe. Heat your wok/pan at high flame for about 2 to 3 mins and begin cooking.
  • Add oil, sliced chilies, garlic and onions to the heated wok. Stir constantly with a spoon.
  • Once the garlic turns light golden, add chicken and mushrooms. Saute till the chicken becomes very slightly golden.
  • Add in your sliced bellpeppers and sauce. Saute for 2 mins for the chicken to absorb flavor.
  • Drop in the parboiled noodles and stir to mix.

Notes

  • When you drain the liquid from boiling the pasta, save 1/4 cup of it.
  • You can skip the chicken for a vegetarian version and use mushrooms or tofu instead.
  • You can use Jalapenos if you can't find Fresno chilies. Remove seeds of the chilies to reduce heat if you want to make it less spicy.
