Ingredients

2 Servings
Serving Size:260g
  • 1/2 boneless chicken thighs, fat removed and trimmed
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • pinch of sea salt & cracked pepper
Salad
  • 2 cups romaine lettuce, shredded
  • 1 cup red cabbage, finely shredded and diced
  • 1 cup matchstick carrots

Note Substitution * Optional

Steps

Step 1

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add noodles.  Once cooked to your satisfaction, drain and set aside. Should take no more than 4 minutes.

Once the noodles have cooled, do a rough chop to break them into smaller pieces.

Step 2

Lightly spray the chicken thighs and season.

Step 3

Set a carbon steel pan on medium-high heat.  Once hot, spray with oil and then add the chicken.  Sear on each side for 8 – 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Note: remember that chicken thighs are a fattier piece of meat, not as lean as chicken breasts, so the cook time will be slightly longer.

Step 4

Prep the veggies and add to a large mixing bowl and toss.  Then add the noodles and toss.
