2/3 cup shredded carrots
1 red bell pepper, cored and thinly-sliced

SPICY SESAME NOODLES WITH CHICKEN AND PEANUTS



Spicy Sesame Noodles With Chicken and Peanuts image

In this quick and spicy weeknight noodle dish, sizzling hot oil is poured over red-pepper flakes, orange peel, crunchy peanuts, soy sauce and sesame oil. While you brown the ground chicken, the mixture sits, and the flavors become more pronounced and fiery. Tossed with soft noodles and browned chicken, the bright chile-peanut oil shines. If you crave something green, throw in a quick-cooking green vegetable when you break up the chicken in Step 3. You can also swap the chicken with ground pork or beef, or crumbled tofu.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 tablespoons red-pepper flakes
1 1/2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil, plus more as needed
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon neutral oil, like grapeseed or vegetable
6 tablespoons roasted, salted peanuts, coarsely chopped
Rind of 1/2 orange, peeled into 2- to 3-inch strips
1 pound ground chicken
10 to 12 ounces ramen or udon noodles, preferably fresh
3 tablespoons finely chopped chives

Steps:

  • In a medium heatproof bowl, stir together the red-pepper flakes, soy sauce and sesame oil. Set next to the stovetop.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Meanwhile, in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium heat, cook the 1/2 cup oil, peanuts and orange rind, shaking the pan occasionally, until the peanuts are golden and bubbling, 3 to 5 minutes. Immediately pour the contents of the skillet over the red-pepper mixture (be careful of splattering!) and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add the chicken and press it down with a wooden spoon into a thin layer. Season with salt and a generous amount of black pepper and cook, without stirring, occasionally pressing the layer of chicken down, until the bottom is browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Break the chicken up into small pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more.
  • While the chicken cooks, cook the noodles according to package directions, until chewy but not soft. Drain and toss with a bit of sesame oil.
  • Remove and discard the orange rind from the chile oil. Off the heat, add enough chile oil to coat the chicken and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Add the noodles and toss, adding more chile oil to fully coat the noodles and chicken. (If you don't use all of the chile oil, you can store it in the refrigerator for 2 weeks in an airtight container.) Top with chives and serve at once.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before starting, measure and prepare all ingredients. This will help streamline the cooking process.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and garlic for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, adds flavor and tenderizes the chicken.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet or wok allows you to cook the chicken and vegetables in one pan, saving time and dishes.
  • Cook the chicken in batches: If your skillet is not large enough to accommodate all the chicken in one go, cook it in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Overcrowding can result in steamed rather than seared chicken.
  • Use high heat: High heat is essential for searing the chicken and vegetables, giving them a nice caramelized flavor.
  • Make the sauce: While the chicken and vegetables are cooking, whisk together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl. This allows the flavors to meld while the other elements of the dish are cooking.
  • Use toasted sesame oil: Toasted sesame oil adds a nutty,香气扑鼻的 flavor to the dish. If you don't have toasted sesame oil, you can use regular sesame oil, but it will have a less pronounced flavor.
  • Cook the noodles: Cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Once they are cooked, rinse them with cold water and toss them with a little sesame oil to prevent them from sticking together.

Conclusion:

This funky chicken and sesame noodle dish is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is flavorful and tender, the vegetables are crisp-tender, and the sauce is tangy and slightly sweet. The noodles add a satisfying chewiness to the dish.
