Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Boil vermicelli in salted water until al dente, about 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and cooked through, about 8 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add sliced onion and the spice blend to the chicken. Stir and cook until onion softens, about 2 minutes and until fragrant.

  4. Step 4

    Toss the cooked vermicelli into the skillet with the chicken. Drizzle honey over everything and stir gently to coat, about 1 minute.

  5. Step 5

    Divide the warm vermicelli mixture between two bowls. Top each with fresh avocado slices, apple slices, and toasted nuts.

  6. Step 6

    Serve immediately while the pasta is still warm and the fruit is cool and crisp.

Tools you’ll need

  • large pot (for boiling pasta)
