Ingredients

Scale

Protein and Vegetables

  • 1 lb chicken breast, sliced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Carbohydrates

  • 8 oz noodles (your choice)

Sauce and Seasoning

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp chili paste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles: Prepare the noodles according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside for later use.
  2. Heat the skillet: Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil, allowing it to warm up evenly.
  3. Sauté the garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until it becomes fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute, making sure it doesn’t burn.
  4. Cook the chicken: Add the sliced chicken breast to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned on the outside and fully cooked through, approximately 6-8 minutes.
  5. Stir-fry broccoli: Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry with the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
  6. Add sauces: Mix in the soy sauce and chili paste thoroughly, coating the chicken and broccoli evenly for that spicy and savory flavor.
  7. Toss noodles: Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss everything together so the noodles absorb the sauce and ingredients are well combined.
  8. Season to taste: Finally, season the bowl with salt and pepper according to your preference.
  9. Serve: Serve the spicy garlic chicken and broccoli noodle bowl hot and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken breast with tofu or shrimp for variation.
  • For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free noodles and tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • Adjust chili paste quantity depending on your preferred spice level.
  • Add a squeeze of lime or sprinkle of sesame seeds for extra flavor.
  • Use fresh garlic for best aroma and taste.
