Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb chicken tenders (not coated or cooked)
1 lb fresh or frozen broccoli florets
1 lb dried udon
1/2 cup oyster sauce (preferably Lee Kum Kee)
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce (preferably Lee Kum Kee or Koon Chun)
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons Chinese chile garlic paste (preferably Lan Chi), or to taste
1/2 cup chopped scallions (from 1 bunch)
2 teaspoons roasted sesame seeds (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook chicken in a 6-quart pot of boiling unsalted water, covered, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Add broccoli to boiling water and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer with slotted spoon to a colander to drain, then transfer to another bowl. Return water to a boil and cook noodles until tender (check often; cooking time on package may not be accurate). Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain noodles in colander and rinse under hot water.
  • While noodles cook, tear chicken into chunks.
  • Add oyster and hoisin sauces, sesame oil, chile garlic paste, half of scallions, and 1/3 cup cooking water to chicken and stir to combine.
  • Divide noodles, broccoli, and chicken mixture among 4 bowls and sprinkle with sesame seeds and remaining scallions. Serve immediately, stirring just before eating. If noodles become dry, moisten with some of cooking water.
  • Cooks' Note
  • If you have to substitute a chile paste without garlic for the chile garlic paste, start with 1/2 teaspoon and add to taste.

The udon noodles were overcooked and the chicken was dry. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more spices or herbs.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used chicken thighs instead of breasts and it turned out great. I also added some chopped carrots and celery to the stir-fry.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I will try using less soy sauce next time.
