SPICY CAJUN NOODLES WITH CHICKEN image

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts cubed
1 clove minced garlic
1 chopped onion
1 tsp oil
1 tbsp frank's red hot sauce
1 tbsp soya sauce
1 cup low sodium chicken broth
1 tsp cajun spice
3/4 cup each chopped carrots, celery
1 tsp corn starch dissolved in small amount of cold water or broth (a shot glass works well)
cooked chow mein noodles

Steps:

Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Sauté garlic and onion. Add chicken and cajun spice and cook for 3 minutes. Add veggies and cook until chicken is no longer pink. Add chicken broth, franks, and soya sauce. Simmer covered for 5 minutes. Add corn starch mixture and stir immediately!!! Sauce will thicken upon stirring. Toss in cooked chow mien noodles and fry for a minute or two (noodles will absorb sauce for more flavour) OR just serve mixture over chow mien noodles. For spicier sauce, add more cajun spice and franks. All measurements are approximate (I tend to be more generous with ingredients than what I listed above) *Pork, beef or shrimp can be substituted for chicken. Also try beef or vegetable broth. Beer can also be substituted for chicken broth. Try different veggies (water-chestnuts, bean sprouts, mini corn cobs, broccoli) **If you don't like onion, cut it up into big pieces and remove it before adding the broth.
