Ingredients

FOR THE YAKISOBA NOODLES SAUCE

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • 1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce or more to taste - or use spicy doubanjiang or sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon honey

FOR THE YAKISOBA

  • 3 tablespoons sesame oil divided (or use vegetable oil)
  • 1 pound boneless chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces (or you can use chicken thighs)
  • 4 ounces shiitake mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1-2 hot peppers thinly sliced (Or more to taste. I am using bird's eye peppers, jalapeno and serrano. Use bell pepper for a milder version.)
  • 1 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 1 medium carrot peeled and thinly sliced
  • ½ head small cabbage thinly sliced or shredded
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic minced
  • 12 ounces prepared yakisoba noodles
  • 4 scallions thinly sliced

Instructions

MAKE THE YAKISOBA SAUCE

  • Whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, mirin, chili-garlic sauce (or doubanjiang or sriracha), Worcestershire sauce and honey together in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside until ready to use.

MAKE THE YAKISOBA NOODLES

  • Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a wok or large pan over high heat. Add the chicken pieces and stir fry 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through. Set the chicken aside.
  • Heat the remaining oil in the hot wok or pan. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes, stirring.
  • Add the peppers, onions, carrots and cabbage. Cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes to soften, or until the vegetables are softened to your preference.
  • Add the garlic and stir fry for 1 minute.
  • Add the noodles, cooked chicken, scallions (green onions) and prepared yakisoba sauce. Stir fry for 1-2 minutes to heat through.
  • Serve!

Notes

If using dried noodles, boil them to soften per the directions on the packaging before stir frying them.
