Serves: 2 | Per serving: ~420 Calories | 42g Protein | 38g Carbs | 10g Fat
Ingredients: * 6 oz chicken breast, thinly sliced * 4 oz whole wheat noodles (or rice noodles) * 1 tbsp sesame oil (or avocado oil) * 1 shallot * 1 red bell pepper, sliced * 2 cloves garlic, minced * 2 green onions, chopped * 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce * 1 tsp honey or maple syrup * ½ tsp rice vinegar or lime juice * A few drops of sesame oil * 1 tsp honey (optional, for balance) * 1 tsp cornstarch (to thicken) * 2 tbsp water
Instructions: 1. Cook the noodles: Boil your noodles until just shy of done… tender but still firm. Drain, rinse under cold water, and set aside. 2. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, 1 tsp honey (or maple syrup), rice vinegar (or lime juice), a few drops of sesame oil, cornstarch, and water. Set aside… that’s your glossy stir-fry sauce. 3. Cook the chicken: Heat ½ tbsp oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook until golden and fully cooked through. Remove and set aside. 4. Sauté the veggies: Add the remaining ½ tbsp oil to the same pan. Toss in garlic, shallot, and bell pepper. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until softened but still crisp. 5. Combine everything: Add noodles and chicken back to the pan. Pour in the sauce and toss for 1–2 minutes until everything is coated and glossy. Taste, and if you want a touch more sweetness, drizzle in the optional extra tsp of honey and stir again. 6. Finish: Remove from heat, top with chopped green onions (and a sprinkle of sesame seeds if you’re feeling fancy).
This is your go-to high-protein, low-grease version of chow mein… guilt-free, flavor-maxed, and ready in 20 minutes.
