Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil
- 1 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken, Diced Small
- 1 Tablespoon Chinese Five Spice
- ½ teaspoons Ground Ginger
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 cloves Garlic, Finely Minced
- 1 bunch Scallions, White Part Separated From Green, Thinly Sliced
- 1 Tablespoon Peanut Butter
- ¼ cups Soy Sauce
- ¼ cups Hoisin Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Rice Wine Vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha
- 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
- 1 package Rice Noodles, 8 Ounce Size
- Black Sesame Seeds, For Garnish
Preparation
Before you start cooking, combine the Chinese five spice, ground ginger and salt in one small bowl. A dipping bowl works well here! In another small bowl, combine the white part of the scallions and garlic. The peanut butter goes into another small bowl. Lastly, stir together the soy sauce, hoisin, Sriracha, sesame oil and rice wine vinegar in a larger bowl. Then get a large, deep frying pan (or large wok if you have one) on the stove over the highest heat you have.
Add the coconut oil to the pan. While the pan gets nice and hot, fill a large bowl with very hot tap water and submerge the rice noodles in it. They just need to soak in the hot water for about 4-5 minutes while everything else cooks. Now that the pan and oil are good and hot, add in the chicken. The chunks are small so they only need about 3–4 minutes to cook through. While they cook add in the spices and seasonings from the first bowl, stirring everything well. Then once they are cooked add in the aromatic scallions and garlic from the second bowl, still stirring pretty constantly. They don’t call it stir fry for nothing! Once they get fragrant for about 30 seconds, stir in the peanut butter. Then pour in the liquid mixture. Drain the rice noodles since they will be perfectly tender at this point and get them into the pan last. Stir everything together thoroughly and take the pan off of the heat. All done!
Divide the mixture among bowls, then garnish each with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds and green scallion slices. Serve immediately and enjoy!
