List of Ingredients

1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 Teaspoon black pepper
1 Pound boneless skinless chicken breasts Cut In 1" Strips
1 Tablespoon sesame oil
2 Packages Ramen Soup Oriental Flavor
2 Tablespoons oil
3 Cups shredded cabbage
4 Slices fresh ginger root
3 Cloves garlic minced
1 Can waterchestnuts (8 oz), sliced
4 scallions cut into 1" pieces
1 11 Oz Can mandarin oranges drained
3 Tablespoons low sodium soy sauce


Recipe

In a plastic bag, mix cornstarch and pepper. Add chicken and shake to coat lightly. Remove chicken to a bowl and sprinkle with sesame oil. Toss well to coat. In a large saucepan, bring 1 1/2 quarts of water and seasoning packets from ramen to a boil. Add noodles, breaking up slightly. Cook until done and drain. In a large skillet, heat 1 TBS oil. Add chicken and stir fry until done. Remove to a plate and keep warm. Add the remaining 1 TBS oil to the skillet. Add cabbage, ginger, garlic, and water chestnuts. Stir fry until the cabbage is wilted, about three minutes. Return the chicken to the skillet. Add drained noodles, scallions, and soy sauce. Toss well. Gently stir in mandarin oranges. Serve immediately. Serves 4.


Original poster's note: I omit cabbage. Use three packages ramen to make it go further. I use non-stick spray instead of oil to coat the pan. Substitute 1 tsp minced fresh ginger for the slices.
