If you love broccoli and haven't try this dish, highly recommend to try at your home. Perfect for a quick lunch or weeknight dinner and every family member loves!

Ingredients:

  • Noodles: I usually like make this noodle with fresh egg noodles, but you can use any dry egg noodles or wheat noodles for this recipe. Udon noodles goes well with chicken and broccoli too.
  • Vegetables: Broccoli head, tender stem broccoli or Chinese broccoli (Kai-lan) can be used in this stir fry but you can also add any extra vegetables such as carrot, baby corn, sweet onion, etc. I added one red chilli for a bit of spicy flavour, if you do not like chilli, you can omit it.
  • Protein: I chose chicken breast for this recipe. This dish can be made with chicken thigh, beef, prawns or any of your choice of protein . If you would like to go this dish beef, I recommend to use tender steak cut, such as rump, sirloin, tenderloin or rib eye.
  • Sauce: Stir fry sauce for this dish is very light and simple. Oyster sauce, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, rice/white vinegar and sesame oil are mixed together to make this delicious savoury sauce. This is the most simple and easy, basic sauce formula that you can use in most of your stir fry noodle dishes.

How to make Chicken Broccoli Noodles:

First of all, cut the chicken into thin slices. In a mixing bowl, add chicken slices and marinade ingredients, mix well and marinate for 15-20 mins.

If you want to use beef for this recipe, choose tender steak cut and marinate with same ingredients for at least 20-30 mins.

Prepare the vegetables by cut the garlic, onion and chillies into thin slices. Cut tender stem broccoli into 2" pieces, slice the stem part into half length ways. I've chose tender stem broccoli in this recipe because it is quicker to cook than typical broccoli but you can use typical broccoli head too.

Notes

  • Fresh egg noodles can be added straight to pan/wok. If you use dry egg noodles, boil the noodles by the packet instructions. Make sure not to cook the noodles very soft, over boiled noodles in stir fry can make the dish mushy and starchy texture. To prevent the noodles from overcooked, after boiling in hot water, rinse with cold running water and drain the water out. Drizzle a bit of sesame/vegetable oil over the noodles, mix well , so the noodles do not stick to one another.
  • Marinating the chicken slices with baking soda and corn starch(flour) is called velveting. That is the secret technique of the Chinese restaurants's succulent stir fry meat. This method is widely used in Oriental/Chinese cooking and it locks the meat moisture and keeps the meat juicy and tender when you stir fry it on high heat.
  • I used large non-stick wok for most of my stir fry noodles. You can use any large wok, pan or skillets. Make sure to prepare all the ingredients and sauce before stir fry and cook the dish with high heat to medium-high heat about 350° to 400° F.
  • If you like your broccoli soft, you can blanch in boiling water for 1-2 mins before you add in your stir fry. If you like crisp vegetables you can add straight to wok and cook until the texture you prefer.

    What’s the difference between light and dark soy sauce? Can you recommend what brands to buy for both kinds?

    • Khin says

      Hi Pam, Light soy sauce – also known as thin soy sauce, regular soy sauce, or all-purpose soy sauce. The taste is salty, slightly sweet, bitter, and umami.

      Dark soy sauce – creates the appetizing brown colour for the chicken and noodles. We usually use Lee Kum Kee Brand soy sauces which you can easily buy in supermarkets, Asian grocery stores or Amazon online.
