How to Make the Recipe

Now, let’s get cooking! Follow these simple steps to create your Chicken Ramen Stir Fry:

1. Bring a pot of water to boil for the ramen noodles.
2. While the water is heating, prepare the sauce by mixing soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and white pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add the chicken pieces and stir-fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
4. In the same pan, add the remaining oil. Stir-fry the bell pepper, snap peas, and carrot for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender.
5. Add the minced garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the green onions. Stir-fry for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
6. Meanwhile, cook the ramen noodles in the boiling water for 2 minutes (slightly undercooked). Drain well.
7. Add the cooked chicken back to the pan with the vegetables. Toss in the cooked ramen noodles and sauce. Stir-fry everything together for 2-3 minutes until well combined and heated through.
8. Garnish with the green parts of the sliced green onions and serve hot.
