CHICKEN MINCE NOODLE STIR-FRY

Serves 4 / Prep 15 minutes / Cook 10 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 380 g fresh hokkien noodles
  • 1 tablespoon sunflower oil
  • 1 brown onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 3 cm piece fresh ginger, finely grated
  • 1 fresh long red chilli, deseeded, thinly sliced (optional)
  • 500 g chicken breast mince
  • 200 g green beans, trimmed and halved
  • 1 red capsicum, thinly sliced
  • 1 carrot, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) kecap manis
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • ½ cup (125 ml) reduced-salt chicken stock, made with 1 stock cube

METHOD

  1. Prepare noodles as per packet instructions. Drain and rinse.
  2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large non-stick wok over high heat. Stir-fry onion, garlic, ginger and chilli for 1–2 minutes, until lightly golden. Add mince and stir-fry, breaking up lumps, for 3 minutes or until no longer pink. Add beans, capsicum and carrot and stir-fry for 3 minutes or until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  3. Combine kecap manis, oyster sauce and stock in a small bowl. Add noodles and sauce to the mince mixture and stir-fry for 2 minutes or until sauce has thickened slightly. Divide among bowls and serve.

TO REFRIGERATE

Store stir-fry in a reusable container for up to 2 days. Reheat in the microwave until heated through.
