Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently on the stove.
  • Freezing: This dish can be frozen, but it’s best to store the noodles separately to maintain their texture.
  • Pairing: Serve with a side of fresh salad or steamed vegetables to balance the rich flavors.
  • Protein alternatives: Substitute the chicken with tofu or a mix of your favorite vegetables for a vegetarian version.
  • Flavor boosters: Add a splash of lime or a dash of chili oil right before serving for an extra kick.
