Ingredients

Scale

Noodles

  • 8 oz flat rice noodles

Protein

  • 8 oz boneless chicken or shrimp

Vegetables

  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup carrots, julienned
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Sauces and Oils

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Cook Noodles: Boil water in a large pot and cook the flat rice noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the noodles and set them aside to prevent overcooking.
  2. Heat Oil and Sauté Garlic: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about one minute until fragrant to infuse the oil with flavor.
  3. Cook Protein: Add the boneless chicken or shrimp to the skillet. Stir-fry the chicken for 3-5 minutes or the shrimp for 2-3 minutes until thoroughly cooked and slightly golden.
  4. Add Vegetables: Toss in the sliced bell peppers, broccoli florets, and julienned carrots. Stir-fry for an additional two minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp, maintaining their vibrant colors and crunch.
  5. Combine Noodles and Sauce: Return the cooked noodles to the skillet, then add the low-sodium soy sauce and brown sugar. Toss everything together thoroughly to coat the noodles and ingredients evenly with the savory-sweet sauce, heating through for a couple of minutes.
  6. Serve: Once everything is well combined and heated, remove from heat and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
