These bad boy,s are full of flavour… and super speedy.. the added bonus is that we usually have all the ingredients in without having to take a trip to the shops.. (that never ends well with a hungry, tired toddler) So I was winning!!
Any mammy,s with wrecked hungry children this recipe is a godsend!!
Also, any slimming world folks, fancy giving these a whirl this recipe is free on extra easy..
Tip… when you drain your cooked noodles, rinse off the starch with cold water. add a little fry light or olive oil to the noodles to prevent them from sticking. I find the Sharwoods medium noodles work best

Ingredients
a glug of olive oil/sesame oil or fry light
140g of medium egg noodles
4 chicken breasts
1 garlic clove
2 tablespoons of frozen corn

Method
(you will need a saucepan, a colander and a Wok )
cook noodles according to the packet.. (usually in boiling water for 4 mins) when they are cooked drain in a colander and spray with olive oil or fry light ..

crumble over the chicken stock cube and sprinkle in soy sauce..
Finish off with the drained noodles .. mixing the whole lot together in the wok and serve in pots x

Great idea – as we’re off on holiday to Asia, I’ve been trying to get my fussy daughter to eat more noodles (and rice) and I do something similar with the fresh stirfry noodles, veg, chicken and a bit of soy sauce (even a tiny bit of ginger). It’s so quick too, which is a big bonus,
Had this for tea 2night was lovely
