Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 200g boneless chicken breast (cut into 1-inch cubes) and cook for 4-5 minutes until golden and cooked through, then remove and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp minced ginger to the skillet, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Step 3: Add 1 cup shredded cabbage and 1 medium carrot (julienned), then stir-fry for 2 minutes until cabbage wilts slightly.
  4. Step 4: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tsp sugar. Pour the sauce over the vegetables and stir-fry for 1 minute.
  5. Step 5: Add 150g rice noodles to the skillet, then pour in the sauce mixture. Toss vigorously for 2-3 minutes until noodles are heated through and coated in sauce.
  6. Step 6: Return the chicken to the skillet and stir-fry for 1 more minute until everything is well combined and heated through. Serve immediately.
