📝 Preparation Steps
1
Boil the noodles & slice the chicken
2
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the noodles to the lower end of the package instructions. You want them slightly underdone since they’ll finish cooking in the sauce. Drain and set aside. Meanwhile, slice the chicken breast into thin, bite-sized pieces.
Water, a splash
3
Marinate the chicken
4
Add the chicken to a bowl with light soy sauce, chicken bouillon, sesame oil, and Shaoxing cooking wine. Mix until evenly coated.

Heat oil in a wok or pan over high heat. Add the chicken and sear or stir-fry until lightly browned and just cooked through. Remove and set aside.

Stir-fry the vegetables

Add a bit more oil if needed, then add garlic and ginger to bloom for a few seconds until fragrant. Add Chinese broccoli, squash, bell pepper, and onion to stir-fry until lightly softened. If needed, do this in small batches to not overcrowd the pan.
