HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the soba noodles according to package instructions, typically 4-5 minutes.

02

Drain the noodles and rinse thoroughly under cold water to remove excess starch; set aside.

03

In a medium bowl, whisk together the toasted sesame oil, soy sauce, and grated ginger to create the dressing.

04

In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the sliced chicken until fully cooked and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.

05

Add the shredded carrots and edamame to the skillet for the final minute of cooking just to warm them through.

06

Transfer the cooked noodles into the skillet with the chicken and vegetables.

07

Pour the dressing over the mixture and toss everything together over low heat for 1 minute until evenly coated.

08

Divide into four bowls and garnish with the toasted sesame seeds before serving.

COOKING TIP

Make it better

For the best texture, ensure you rinse the soba noodles under very cold water; this prevents them from becoming gummy and keeps the strands separate.

SUBSTITUTIONS

Easy swaps

If you cannot find soba noodles, brown rice vermicelli or even thin spaghetti can be used as a gluten-free or pantry-friendly alternative.

STORAGE

Keep it fresh

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; the noodles can be enjoyed cold or gently reheated in the microwave.
