Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups chicken broth low-sodium or unsalted
- ¼ cup soy sauce less-sodium
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil toasted
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated fresh
- Pinch crushed red pepper flakes or more to taste
- 6 ounces spaghetti broken into small pieces, uncooked
- ½ red bell pepper seeded and finely diced
- 2 cups chicken such as the meat from a store-bought rotisserie chicken, cooked, shredded or diced
- ½ cup green onion divided, sliced
- peanuts coarsely chopped dry roasted peanuts; toasted, for garnish
- sesame seeds coarsely chopped dry roasted peanuts; toasted, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Spread the uncooked spaghetti and the red bell pepper in the bottom of the prepared dish.
- In a separate bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the chicken broth, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Pour over the pasta. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes, stirring halfway through.
- Uncover; stir again. At this point, you should check the pasta to make sure that it is al dente (firm but just about finished cooking). If it’s still too hard, cover the dish and return to the oven until pasta is al dente. Then, move on to the next step.
- Stir in the chicken and half of the green onions. Return the dish to the oven and bake, uncovered, for about 5 more minutes, until the chicken is warmed through and the pasta is tender. Give the pasta another stir, and then allow the dish to rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Garnish with the remaining green onions, chopped peanuts, and/or toasted sesame seeds just before serving.
Notes
- This recipe is specifically designed and tested with regular spaghetti. Do not substitute with rice noodles, gluten-free pasta, or different varieties of pasta, or you'll need to adjust the total cooking time and/or amount of liquid in the dish.
- Do not omit the hoisin sauce or sesame oil. These are essential to the unique flavor that we know and love in this type of Asian noodle dish.
- Total cooking time will vary depending on the type of pan that you use and on your individual oven. A glass or ceramic casserole dish will take longer than a metal pan, for instance. To know when your noodles are done, taste a bite of the pasta. The noodles should be tender and much of the liquid should be absorbed.
- Be careful not to overbake the dish or the noodles will become mushy.
- Do not season with salt until you taste the finished dish. The soy sauce, chicken broth, and hoisin all include sodium, so you likely will not need anything more.
- Garnish with the green onions, fresh cilantro, chopped peanuts, or toasted sesame seeds for extra flavor and crunchy texture.
