Instructions
- 1Cook the Hokkien noodles according to package directions, drain, and set aside.
- 2Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- 3Heat the sesame oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat. Working in three batches, add the chicken pieces and cook 5–7 minutes per batch, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Transfer cooked chicken to a clean plate.
- 4Return the wok to medium-high heat. Add the onion, broccoli florets, snow peas, green beans, bell pepper, and baby corn. Stir-fry for 4–5 minutes over medium-high heat until the vegetables begin to soften but remain crisp-tender, with bright color.
- 5Add the fresh garlic to the wok and stir continuously for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 6Return the cooked chicken to the wok. Add the oyster sauce, soy sauce, and brown sugar. Toss everything to combine, cooking for 1 minute over medium-high heat.
- 7Add the cooked noodles to the wok and stir gently for 2–3 minutes over medium heat until the noodles are heated through and the vegetables are bright and tender.
- 8Divide the stir-fry evenly into 6 airtight containers while hot. Cool to room temperature, then seal and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
