Ingredients

• Chicken breast - 200 grams, diced
• Egg noodles - 150 grams
• Sesame oil - 2 tablespoons
• Soy sauce - 3 tablespoons
• Honey - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
• Green onions - 2, sliced
• Red bell pepper - 1/2, thinly sliced
• Carrot - 1 medium, julienned
• Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon, toasted
• Salt - to taste

Steps

1. In a pot, bring 1 liter of water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

3. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, honey, and remaining sesame oil. Pour this sauce over the cooked chicken and stir to coat evenly.
