Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb chicken breast, sliced

Vegetables

  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Carbohydrates

  • 8 oz noodles (your choice, e.g., rice noodles, soba, whole wheat)

Sauces and Oils

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp chili paste

Seasonings

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook Noodles: Boil water and cook the noodles according to package instructions until tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté Garlic: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute, being careful not to burn it.
  3. Cook Chicken: Add the sliced chicken breast to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned on the outside and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
  4. Stir-Fry Broccoli: Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until they turn bright green and are tender-crisp.
  5. Add Sauces: Stir in the soy sauce and chili paste, mixing well to coat the chicken and broccoli evenly with the flavorful sauce.
  6. Toss Noodles: Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until well combined and heated through.
  7. Season: Adjust the seasoning by adding salt and pepper to taste, then give everything one final toss.
  8. Serve: Serve the spicy garlic chicken and broccoli noodle bowls hot for a satisfying and delicious meal.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of chili paste to control the spiciness to your preference.

  • Use gluten-free soy sauce or tamari to make the recipe gluten-free.
  • Noodles can be swapped for zucchini noodles or shirataki noodles for a low-carb option.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
