Ingredients
  

250g egg noodles

300g boneless chicken breast, diced

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

3 green onions, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ginger, minced

1/2 cup roasted unsalted peanuts

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon oyster sauce

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon chili paste (adjust to taste)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Cook the Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Prepare the Chicken: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry until the chicken is browned and cooked through (about 6-7 minutes). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

      Stir-Fry the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic, ginger, and diced bell peppers. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.

        Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Add the cooked egg noodles, soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and chili paste. Toss everything together well, ensuring the noodles are evenly coated in the sauce.

          Add Peanuts and Serve: Stir in the roasted peanuts and chopped green onions. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until everything is warmed through. Adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or chili paste if desired.

            Plate and Enjoy: Serve the Kung Pao Chicken Noodles hot, garnished with extra green onions or peanuts on top if desired.
