๐จโ๐ณMethod
Cook the Noodles
5 minBoil a pot of lightly salted water. Cook the 40g of egg noodles according to the package directions. Drain and set aside. Do not boil the zucchini noodles!
Sear the Chicken
5 minHeat a non-stick wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Coat it lightly with zero-calorie cooking spray. Add the sliced chicken breast, season with black pepper and garlic powder, and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until cooked completely through and slightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Stir-Fry the Veggies
4 minLower the heat to medium. Give the pan one more quick spray of cooking oil and toss in the bell pepper and eggplant matchsticks. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften and get a slight char.
Build the Sauce
1 minIn a small cup, mix the low-sodium soy sauce, sugar-free syrup, and vinegar.
Combine and Toss
2 minReturn the cooked chicken and the boiled egg noodles to the wok with the vegetables. Toss in your raw zucchini noodles. Pour the sweet soy sauce mixture over everything. Toss continuously for 1-2 minutes. The residual heat will perfectly soften the zucchini noodles without turning them into mush, and the sauce will coat the dish in a sticky glaze.
Garnish and Serve
1 minTransfer your massive noodle stir-fry to a serving bowl. Sprinkle the chopped cashews over the top to match the crunchy garnish in the photo. Serve hot!
