Ingredients
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts chopped into 2-inch pieces
- 2 packages chicken flavored ramen noodles (including seasoning)
- 1 ½ cups water divided
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce (I used low sodium)
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 green bell pepper sliced
- ½ white onion sliced
- ½ cup cashews
- thinly sliced green onions
Instructions
- Drizzle your skillet (see note) with oil. Saute chicken until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
- Place ramen noodles in the bottom of the skillet. Sprinkle seasoning packets over the noodles, then add peppers and onions to the skillet. Pour 1 1/4 cups of water into the skillet. Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 5-8 minutes until noodles are soft and liquid is absorbed.
- Whisk together remaining 1/4 cup water, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and garlic and add to the skillet along with the cooked chicken and the cashews. Stir to combine.
- Allow to cook for 3-5 minutes until cashews start to become tender. Top with green onions, cracked black pepper (optional) and serve hot.
