Simple Chicken Noodle Stir Fry
This Simple Chicken Noodle Stir Fry provides only 9g protein and 375 calories per serving across 6 servings. This recipe falls short for dedicated lifters; you'll need to add protein powder or lean meat to make it viable for hitting daily targets.
Ingredients
- •Sesame Oil, Toasted(15g)
- •Chicken Thigh, Boneless Skinless
Boneless skinless thighs. Fattier than breast but more forgiving to cook.
- •Yellow Onion
- •Broccoli
- •Peas, Snow(240g)
- •Green Beans(120g)
- •Bell Pepper
- •Corn, Baby
- •Garlic(10g)
- •Oyster sauce(45g)
- •Soy Sauce, Low Sodium(30g)
- •Brown sugar(15g)
- •Hokkien Noodles, Dry(425g)
Instructions
- 1Heat a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add oil and when hot, fry the chicken in small batches until golden and cooked through (I cook them in three batches). When all the chicken is cooked, add the broccoli, snow peas, green beans, red capsicum/bell peppers and corn spears. Stir fry vegetables until still crunchy on the outside but beginning to soften on the inside. Add garlic, sauces and sugar, and mix to combine.
- 2Add the pre-washed and prepared noodles, and simmer stirring occasionally for 2 - 3 minutes, or until the vegetables have turned bright in colour (cooked but crispy), and the noodles have softened and cooked through.

How much protein does Simple Chicken Noodle Stir Fry have per serving?
Each serving contains only 9g of protein and 375 calories with 15g fat and 51g carbs. This is a carb-heavy, low-protein option that works better as a side than a macro-tracked main meal.
How long does Simple Chicken Noodle Stir Fry take to prep?
Quick prep on stovetop yields 6 servings in one batch, making this efficient for week-long meal prep if you're pairing it with a separate protein source. Minimal active time when divided across the full yield.
Is Simple Chicken Noodle Stir Fry good for fat loss?
At 375 calories and only 9g protein per serving, this recipe falls short of the 30g+ protein baseline needed to preserve muscle during a cut. You'd need to add a high-protein component to make this work for fat loss phases.
