SPICY CHICKEN SOBA NOODLES

Steps:

• Prepare soba noodles according to package directions; set aside.
• Meanwhile, blanch broccoli and peas (if using fresh) in boiling salty water for 3 minutes.
• In a small bowl, whisk together sauce: hoisin, soy, sesame oil, rice vinegar and chili garlic paste; set aside.
• When broccoli and peas turn bright green from blanching, submerge in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. (This keeps veggies bright and crisp, not brown and mushy.) Note: If using frozen peas, simply thaw and skip this step.
• Next, heat oil over medium-high heat in a large wok or deep pan.
• Add cubed chicken breast and cook until browned, about 7-8 minutes; remove from pan and set aside.
• To the hot pan, add onion and cook 4 minutes.
• Stir in garlic, ginger and red pepper; cook additional 2 minutes.
• Add cooked broccoli, peas, mushrooms and reserved chicken breast.
• Pour in sauce and reserved noodles and cook for 2 minutes. Garnish with green onions.
