# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 340 g rice noodles
02 - 45 ml vegetable oil, divided
03 - 450 g skinless, boneless chicken breasts, sliced into bite-sized strips
04 - Salt, to taste
05 - Black pepper, to taste

→ Vegetables

06 - 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced (or 1/2 red and 1/2 green bell pepper)
07 - 100 g broccoli, chopped
08 - 115 g shiitake or portobello mushrooms, sliced

→ Aromatics and Seasonings

09 - 15 ml fresh ginger, peeled and grated
10 - 120 ml chicken broth
11 - 30 ml soy sauce (not low-sodium)
12 - 30 ml ketchup
13 - 5 ml corn starch
14 - Sesame oil, for drizzling

# Instructions:

01 - Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add rice noodles and cook on medium heat for 2–4 minutes, or until barely tender. Drain immediately and toss with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
02 - Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Lightly season chicken strips with salt and black pepper. Add chicken to the pan and stir-fry for about 3 minutes or until just cooked through. Transfer to a clean plate and set aside.
03 - In the same pan, add bell pepper, broccoli, and mushrooms. Sauté for 1 minute, then add grated ginger and stir-fry for an additional 2 minutes, allowing vegetables to become vibrant while retaining some crunch.
04 - In a small mixing bowl, whisk together chicken broth, soy sauce, ketchup, and corn starch until smooth.
05 - Return cooked chicken and noodles to the wok. Pour in the prepared sauce. Stir-fry everything together over high heat for 3 minutes or until the chicken is hot, vegetables are glazed, and noodles are coated with sauce.
06 - Remove from heat. Drizzle sesame oil over the stir fry and adjust seasoning with additional salt and black pepper to taste before serving.

# Notes:

01 - For best results, slice chicken and vegetables evenly to ensure uniform cooking and maintain stir fry texture.
