Recipe Introduction

This cooks up very quickly, so do your prep work first, then start cooking! Easy but delicious, from start to finish in under 30 minutes.

List of Ingredients

12 oz oriental noodles (I use the fresh ones found in the produce department)
8 oz boneless chicken breasts, sliced thinly (freezing for about 20 minutes make this task easier)
3 Tbs soy sauce, divided
1 Tbs rice vinegar
1 Tbs sesame oil
4 Tbs olive oil, divided
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 oz snow peas, trimmed
2 oz ham, finely sliced
1 1/2-2 Tbs oyster sauce
4 green onions, finely chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

4 Slice the chicken and place it in a bowl with 2 tsp of soy sauce, the rice vinegar and sesame oil.
