Of course mad mittens! Its a Slimming World receipe but good enough for anyone else too - it was originally chicken chow mein but I just change the main ingredient sometimes!
150g packet dried egg noodles
3 garlic cloves
4 spring onions
2 carrots
113g/4oz mangetout
113g/4oz mushrooms
1 red pepper
4 cooked chicken breasts (prawns this time!!!)
Fry Light
1 tsp finely grated root ginger
4 tbsp soy sauce
85ml/3fl oz chicken stock made with Bovril
142g/5oz beansprouts
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1. Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions, drain and set aside.
2. Meanwhile prepare the ingredients: finely grate the garlic; slice the spring onions; cut the carrots into matchsticks; halve the mange tout lengthways; halve the mushrooms; deseed and thinly slice the pepper; roughly shred the chicken.
3. Heat a frying pan sprayed with Fry Light, add the ginger, garlic and spring onions and fry for 2-3 minutes.
4. Add the soy sauce, chicken stock, carrots, mangetout, mushrooms, red pepper and beansprouts and stir fry for a further 3-4 minutes. Add the chicken and noodles, toss together and heat through. Season well and serve immediately.
