How to Make This Chicken Ramen Stir Fry Recipe

For the Sauce

STEP ONE: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauces, hoisin, oyster sauce, rice wine vinegar, sriracha and white pepper. Set it aside.

For the Chicken, Noodles and Vegetables

STEP ONE: In a 3 to 4-quart saucepan, over medium-high heat, bring to a low boil 6 cups of water. Add the instant noodles only to the hot water and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, just until the noodles begin to soften. Drain and rinse the noodles in cold water to stop the cooking process. Set the noodles aside.

PRO TIP:

You don’t need the seasoning packet that comes in the ramen packages. You can either toss them or keep them for another recipe in the future.

STEP TWO: In a 10 to 12-inch nonstick skillet, over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. 

STEP THREE: Add in the diced chicken breast and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken and set it aside.

STEP FIVE: Add the diced red peppers, mushrooms, and diced onions. Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, until the onion and peppers are slightly tender.

    Your Ramen & Chicken Stir-fry looks delicious!! Want to make it this weekend! On the soy sauce part I know about the dark soy but for the regular soy sauce can I use low sodium soy sauce instead or it has to be regular soy sauce?

    OMG! This was sooo good! And even better the next day! Five Stars and my kids ate (most of) their vegetables!

    I would try this with another protein. I have some thin pork chops and I’ll get them into this meal .

    This is one of my kids’ favorite recipes! We have it at least once a month. Sometimes I buy a packet of fresh precut stir fry veggies just to save time.

    Also, I’ve never heard of dark or light soy sauce, so I just put in the full amount of whatever I’ve got. It’s also even better if you add one of the ramen seasoning packets.
