Asian Chicken and Bean Thread Noodles image

This is a great, lite dish. It's also very filling. If you want a lite dinner with a great Asian flavor you will love this one. My husband isn't crazy about bean thread noodles so if you aren't crazy about bean thread noodles try substituting thin spaghetti noodles. It still has the same great flavor!

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup soy sauce
1 1/2 cups water
1 inch peeled finely chopped fresh ginger
1 medium bulb of garlic, peeled and pressed
1 tablespoon sugar
3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast halves
4 ounces bean thread noodles
2 cucumbers, cut in half lengthwise, seeded and sliced thin
5 green onions, sliced thin
1/2 cup chopped dry roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Bring the first five ingredients to a boil remove from heat. Cover and let steep for 10 minutes.
  • Add chicken breast and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 35 to 45 minutes.
  • Remove to plate. Cut into 1 inch cubes when cooled enough to handle.
  • Cook remaining broth down to measure 3/4 cup . If less than 3/4 cup remains, add enough water to make 3/4 cup.
  • Cook bean thread noodles. Rinse and drain.
  • Place well drained noodles into a serving bowl. Top with chicken, cucumbers, onions and peanuts. Drizzle remaining broth/sauce over the top and toss.
  • Chill and serve.
  • We like onions so I add more. We also like the crunch of the peanuts but you can add as many or as few as you like.
