Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Chicken Teriyaki Noodles
- In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, water, mirin, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and cornstarch slurry. Whisk the mixture thoroughly and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Stir continuously for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens to a glossy consistency, then set aside.
- Season your boneless skinless chicken thighs with salt and pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated. Pour 1/4 cup of the prepared teriyaki sauce over the chicken, tossing to coat each piece well. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, add the marinated chicken thighs to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
- In the same wok, add another drizzle of vegetable oil if needed. Add sliced onions and julienned carrots, stirring constantly for about 3 minutes until they begin to soften. Then mix in broccoli florets and sliced cabbage along with minced garlic and grated ginger. Continue to stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the udon noodles according to the package instructions, usually around 3-5 minutes. Once cooked, drain the noodles in a colander and rinse them briefly under cold water.
- Return the cooked chicken to the wok with the sautéed vegetables. Add the cooked udon noodles and the remaining teriyaki sauce to the pan. Toss everything together gently for about 1-2 minutes until heated through.
- Plate your Chicken Teriyaki Noodles, and finish with a sprinkle of sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot.
