Chinese Cashew Chicken Noodles Stir-Fry

Step 1

Start by cooking the noodles in salted water, according to package directions, until just al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Pat the chicken dry, and make sure it's not wet. Toss the chicken in cornflour and salt till well coated. Heat oil in a large, wide pan and add the chicken pieces, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. You may have to do this in batches. Cook the chicken for 3 minutes on both sides, till light brown and crispy.

Step 3

Heat the remaining oil in the same pan or use a wok if you have one. Add the garlic and whole red chillies. Cook for a minute or so and add the broccoli, bell peppers, zucchini and chicken in the pan. Stir-fry on high heat for 2-3 minutes till the vegetables are slightly tender, but not over cooked. Mix all the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl. Add the sauce and noodles and toss everything well and cook till the sauce has coated the noodles completely. Mix in the roasted cashews, top with sesame seeds, green onions, and serve hot.
