Ingredients

Scale

Protein and Vegetables

  • 1 lb chicken breast, sliced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Carbohydrates

  • 8 oz noodles (your choice)

Seasonings and Oils

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp chili paste

Instructions

  1. Cook Noodles: Cook the noodles according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.

  5. Add Sauces: Stir in the soy sauce and chili paste, mixing thoroughly to coat the chicken and broccoli evenly with the spicy, savory sauce.
  6. Toss Noodles: Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing everything together until well combined and heated through.
  7. Season and Serve: Season with salt and pepper to taste, give the dish a final toss, then serve hot in bowls and enjoy your flavorful spicy garlic chicken and broccoli noodle bowls.
