This stir-fried chicken dish uses Shanghai-style noodles. These are thick noodles that are packaged in plastic bags and sold fresh in Asian/Chinese markets. If you can't find Shanghai noodles, feel free to replace them with Japanese udon noodles, or you can use thick Italian pasta such as linguini or tagliatelle. While this dish is usually served as a side dish, it is hearty enough to be a quick dinner in itself. You can adjust the seasonings to your taste.

"A very clear and detailed step-by-step recipe, which leaves the cook nothing to worry about. The recipe seems involved, but it really isn't. The entire dish came together in about 35 minutes. Although the author states that this was intended to be a side dish for 4, it would also make a healthy main dish serving for 2 people." —Diana Andrews

Recipe Variation

This recipe uses chicken as one of the main ingredients, but you can use pork or beef instead with a slightly different marinade: Combine 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon dark soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch, and 1/2 tablespoon rice wine or Shaoxing rice wine. Add the pork or beef and marinate 15 to 30 minutes before cooking.
