Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup honey, 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Cut the 1.5 lb chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. Pat dry with paper towels.

  3. Step 3

    Heat the 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook without stirring until browned on one side, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until cooked through, about 4 more minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Pour the sauce over the chicken. Stir and cook until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken, about 2 minutes. The sauce should cling to the chicken and look glossy.

  5. Step 5

    Add the 12 oz cooked noodles to the skillet. Toss everything together until the noodles are well coated with the sauce and heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve hot.

  6. Step 6

    Optional: sprinkle with sesame seeds or sliced green onions if you have them.
