Ingredients

  • tbsp Cooks’ Ingredients Gochujang Chilli Paste
  • 20g salted butter
  • ½ tsp clear honey
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 20g piece ginger, peeled and grated
  • 300g pack superbright stir fry
  • 2 x 150g packs Itsu Udon Noodles
  • 2 ready to eat British roast chicken breast fillets, skin discarded, cut into bitesized chunks (or use leftover roast chicken breast)
  • ½ tsp black sesame seeds

Method

  1. In a small pan set over a medium heat, melt the gochujang, butter and honey, stirring occasionally until combined, then set aside. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan over a high heat and fry the ginger for 1 minute, until fragrant.

  2. Add the stir fry veg, noodles, chicken and 75ml water to the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles soften and separate.

  3. Pour over the gochujang sauce and cook for 1-2 minutes more, stirring continuously, until the chicken is piping hot and the noodles are coated and glossy, adding 1-2 tbsp more water if needed. Scatter over the sesame seeds, then serve.

Cook’s tip

To make this into a fried rice-style recipe, use a pouch of cooked rice instead of noodles.
