Sticky Garlic Chicken Noodles are a bold and satisfying one-pan meal with tender chicken, chewy noodles, and a sweet-savory garlic sauce that clings to every bite. Fast, flavorful, and better than takeout.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breast or thighs, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 8 oz rice noodles or lo mein noodles
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil or vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated (optional)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp dark soy sauce (optional)
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey or brown sugar
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Optional toppings: sesame seeds, chili flakes, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Cook noodles according to package instructions, rinse, and set aside.
  2. Toss sliced chicken with cornstarch, salt, and pepper.
  3. Heat oil in a pan or wok over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  4. Sauté garlic (and ginger, if using) in the same pan for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, and honey. Stir and let bubble to thicken slightly.
  6. Return chicken to the pan and coat with the sticky sauce.
  7. Add cooked noodles and green onions, tossing to coat until glossy and combined.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds, chili flakes, and lime wedges if desired.

Notes

  • Use shrimp, tofu, or thinly sliced beef instead of chicken.
  • Swap noodles for soba, udon, ramen, or spaghetti.
  • Add quick-cooking veggies like bok choy, carrots, or bell peppers.
  • Add sriracha or chili paste for extra heat.
  • Reheat with a splash of water to revive sauce and noodles.
