Ingredients
Spring Stir Fry
- 8 ounces rice noodles
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil divided
- 12 pears asparagus chopped
- 6 broccolini chopped
- 2 medium carrots sliced
- 1 bunch radishes quartered
- 1 cup snap peas cut in half if large
- 2 cups purple cabbage thinly sliced
- ¼ cup minced ginger
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced
- 2 medium chicken breasts cubed
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- sesame seeds to serve
Lemon Sesame Sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- ¾ cup chicken stock
- ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce gluten-free if needed
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Remove the pot from the heat, add the rice noodles, and let them soak for 1 minute - they will not be fully cooked at this point. Drain the noodles then rinse them under cold running water.
- While the water is heating, chop the veggies and make the sauce. Add the cornstarch and a splash of the chicken stock to a 2-cup measuring cup or bowl and mix well. Add the remaining sauce ingredients and stir.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat then add the asparagus, broccolini, carrots, radishes, snap peas, and cabbage and stir fry for 2-3 minutes or until the veggies begin to soften. Add the ginger and garlic and cook for 1 minute more and then remove the vegetables from the pan.
- Toss the chicken with the cornstarch. Heat the remaining tablespoon of the oil in the pan then add the chicken and cook until it is lightly golden and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- Add the semi-cooked noodles and vegetables to the pan then pour the sauce over the top. Gently toss the noodles using tongs until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Serve the stir fry topped with sesame seeds.
Notes
- To switch things up you can use thinly sliced pork chops instead of the chicken. Or go vegetarian and use cubed tofu!
