Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the chicken breast into thin strips. Finely shred the cabbage, julienne the carrot and red pepper, slice the green onions on the diagonal and grate the garlic and ginger.

  2. 2

    Heat half the sunflower oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat; stir-fry the chicken for 5-6 minutes until browned at the edges and cooked through, then set aside.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining sunflower oil; stir the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds, then add the carrot, red pepper and cabbage and stir-fry over high heat for 3-4 minutes, keeping them crisp.

  4. 4

    Add the noodles, chicken and soy sauce and toss continuously for 2-3 minutes until the noodles absorb the sauce and are hot.

  5. 5

    Add the green onions and sesame oil, toss for 30 seconds more and serve at once.
