Ingredients

• 1 450g package of Hokkien noodles (or preferred noodles)
• 1 tablespoon cornflour
• 1/3 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 500g boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 2-3cm chunks
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
• 1 spring onion, thinly sliced

Method

1. Whisk cornflour with 1/4 cup of water until well combined.

2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, honey and 1 cup water. Simmer, and add cornflour mixture, stirring for 2 minutes or until sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Allow to cool and reserve 1/4 cup and set aside.

3. Combine chicken and remaining sauce in a large bowl, cover, and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes before draining.

4. Prepare noodles according to package instructions, and drain.

5. Heat olive oil in a large frypan over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until cooked through and golden, around 4-5 minutes.

6. Add noodles and reserved sauce mixture, and stir until well combined.

7. Serve immediately, with spring onions and sesame seeds as garnish.
