Preparation

Step 1

Cook the noodles in a large pan of boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes or until just tender. Drain and refresh under cold running water.

Put all the ingredients except the chicken, pickled ginger and coriander sprigs in a large bowl, adding the noodles last. Mix to combine.

Heat a wok over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. When hot, add the chicken and stir fry for 5 minutes or until cooked. Add everything from the bowl and stir fry 3 to 4 more minutes. Divide between 2 to 3 bowls and scatter over the pickled ginger and coriander sprigs.
