- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 8 ounces noodles (ramen, udon, or egg noodles)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Set aside.

- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

- Pour in the prepared sauce and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

- Stir in sliced green onions.
- Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
- For a gluten-free option, use tamari instead of soy sauce and gluten-free noodles.
