Instructions

Cook the noodles according to package instructions, drain, and rinse under cold water.
While the noodles are cooking, mix the sauce ingredients and set aside.
Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a wok, add the chicken seasoned with salt, and cook while stirring until fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining vegetable oil to the wok, stir fry the grated ginger and minced garlic for a few seconds, then add the carrots and cabbage and stir fry over high heat for 5 minutes until slightly browned.
Add the cooked noodles, chicken, green onions, and peanut sauce to the wok and mix well. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve with sliced green onions and Chinese chilli oil on the side.
