Instructions

  1. Add water to a large pot with a tablespoon of salt. Set to a high heat. Once boiling, add pasta and cook for 6-7 minutes. Then add the broccoli with the noodles and cook for another 3 minutes. Drain and set noodles and broccoli aside.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and sriracha.
  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken, garlic, ginger and a few shakes of salt and pepper. Cook, tossing frequently, for 5-6 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink. Then remove from heat.
  4. Stir the sauce mixture again to make sure everything is mixed. Then add the pasta, broccoli and sauce to the skillet with the chicken. Stir until all the pasta is coated and everything is evenly incorporated. Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top and serve.
