A tasty chicken noodle stir fry cooked in a satay sauce, topped with fresh veggies and peanuts.

Indomie Noodles are hugely popular in New Zealand. From snacking to main meals, they are the type of food that everyone in the family enjoys. When Indomie asked me to collaborate with them on a family meal it was a no-brainer. Here is my favourite recipe for Chicken Satay Noodle Stir Fry.

The Indomie Noodles are the perfect base to this fast and easy meal. Not only are they great for soaking up the delicious sauce, but they're also really fun to eat! This meal is super quick to pull together once the ingredients have been prepped. I like to chop up all my veg at the start, then get into frying the chicken. 

How to make Chicken Satay Noodle Stir Fry:

To begin, heat the sesame oil in a large frying pan on a high heat. Add the chicken and brown on all sides until cooked through. Cook the noodles for 2.5 minutes in a large pot of boiling water.

Drain the noodles and add to the pan with the chicken. Stir fry for a few minutes. In a glass jug, whisk together the soy sauce, boiling water, peanut butter and both Indomie flavour sachets.

Pour the satay sauce over the noodles and chicken, then stir fry to coat in the sauce. 

Once heated through, serve the noodles and chicken in bowls topped with carrot, sugar snaps, bean sprouts, spring onion and fresh chilli. Scatter over roasted peanuts and serve immediately with slices of lime.

Big fan of noodles? Me too! Check out my collection of noodle dishes including Thai Style Beef Salad, Slow cooker Honey and Soy Chicken, Vietnamese Chicken Noodle Salad, as well as my super popular Steak Salad with Miso Dressing.

Common questions about Chicken Noodle Satay Stir Fry:

What type of chicken should I use? I prefer boneless, skinless chicken thighs for this recipe. But chicken breast would also work. 

Is this meal suitable for kids? Absolutely! The sauce isn't spicy and you can just add your kids' favourite vegetables to the top (leaving out the chilli!).
