Ingredients
  

  • 1 package soba noodles (or chow mein or spaghetti)
  • 4 skinless boneless chicken thighs
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons grape seed oil (or oil of choice)
  • 1/2 red pepper sliced
  • 1 cup matchstick carrots
  • 2 radishes chopped

Sauce

  • 2 cups fresh orange juice
  • zest from 1 orange
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup water

Garnish

  • sesame seeds
  • cilantro, chopped
  • green onion, sliced

Instructions
 

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook noodles according to package directions. Drain.
  • Cut chicken thighs into 1 inch cubes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add the chicken and cook for a few minutes, flipping to ensure even cooking. Add the carrots, red peppers and radishes and saute together until the veggies soften and the chicken is completely cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, over high heat in a saucepan add all of the sauce ingredients except for the cornstarch and water. Bring everything to a boil and then reduce heat to medium heat.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add it to the saucepan and whisk to combine. Once the sauce thickens, remove from heat.
  • When the noodles, chicken and veggies are cooked, combine them all in the large skillet and pour sauce over top. Toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, cilantro and green onions before serving.
