  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 2-3 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1/3 cup chicken broth or vegetable broth

4 tablespoons hoisin sauce

2 tablespoons soy sauce or Tamari sauce

2 teaspoons cornstarch

1/2 teaspoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger

1/2 teaspoon Sriracha sauce (adjust to desired spice level)

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

8 oz. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into cubes

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 red bell pepper, cut into strips

1 carrot, cut into strips

1/2 red onion, cut into strips

1 cup snap peas

2 cups sliced mushrooms

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 zucchinis, spiralized into noodles

Instructions

1-First: whisk together the sauce in a small bowl: mix 1/3 cup chicken broth or vegetable broth, 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 2 tablespoons soy sauce or Tamari sauce, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon Sriracha sauce. Set it aside for now. This simple sauce adds a tangy kick that ties everything together.

2-Next: heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat. Add the 8 oz. cubed chicken breasts, seasoned with salt and black pepper, and cook for about 4-5 minutes until they’re done. Once ready, set the chicken aside to rest.

3-Now: add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and toss in the veggies: 1 red bell pepper cut into strips, 1 carrot cut into strips, 1/2 red onion cut into strips, 1 cup snap peas, 2 cups sliced mushrooms, and 3 cloves minced garlic. Stir them constantly for about 4 minutes until they’re tender but still crisp. For more on keeping veggies just right, check out tips from similar recipes like our fruit pizza prep methods.

4-Pour in the sauce and cook for 2-3 minutes until it thickens. Stir the chicken back in to mix it all up, then gently fold in the 2 spiralized zucchinis. Let it cook for just 1 minute to coat the noodles without making them mushy. Serve right away for the best taste and texture.
