Stir Fried Chicken Noodles


I found this recipe in an issue of Light and Tasty and few years ago and it has become one of our favorites.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup white wine or additional chicken broth
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3/4 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
4 teaspoons canola oil, divided
2 cups broccoli florets
2 cups julienned carrots
2 cups shredded Chinese or napa cabbage
1 cup fresh or frozen snow peas, cut into 1-inch pieces
6 ounces spaghetti, broken
2 teaspoons cornstarch

Directions: In a bowl, combine the first seven ingredients; set aside 3/4 cup. Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag; add remaining marinade. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Drain and discard marinade. In a large nonstick skillet or wok, stir-fry chicken in 2 teaspoons oil for 3-5 minutes or until no longer pink. Remove and keep warm. stir-fry broccoli and carrots in remaining oil for 6 minutes. Add cabbage and peas; stir-fry 3 minutes longer or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions.

Combine cornstarch and reserved marinade until smooth; add to vegetable mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. drain pasta; stir into vegetable mixture. Return chicken to the pan; cook and stir until heated through. Yield: 6 servings.

Don't feel like you can't make this if you don't have every vegetable. I usually don't add everything, just what I have on hand.
