# List of Ingredients:

→ For the Chicken Teriyaki

01 - 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
02 - 2 tablespoons soy sauce
03 - 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
04 - 1 tablespoon honey
05 - 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
06 - 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
07 - 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
08 - 1 tablespoon sesame oil

→ For the Noodles

09 - 8 ounces dried egg noodles or udon noodles
10 - 1 tablespoon sesame oil
11 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce

→ For the Garnish

12 - 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
13 - 2 green onions, thinly sliced
14 - Red pepper flakes, optional

# Preparation Steps:

01 - In a bowl, combine soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add sliced chicken breast and mix to coat evenly. Allow chicken to marinate for at least 10 minutes, or up to 1 hour for enhanced flavor.
02 - Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and add to the pan in a single layer. Sauté for 6 to 8 minutes, turning as needed, until chicken is cooked through and lightly browned. Transfer chicken to a clean plate and reserve.
03 - Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add dried noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, typically 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
04 - Return skillet to medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Add cooked noodles and toss with 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, ensuring noodles are evenly coated.
05 - Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with noodles. Toss together to combine and warm through for 2 to 3 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
06 - Transfer to serving plates or bowls. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Add red pepper flakes for optional heat. Serve immediately while hot.

# Additional Suggestions:

01 - Marinate the chicken longer for maximum flavor infusion. Use a nonstick pan or wok for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
02 - Toss noodles in a small amount of sesame oil after cooking to prevent clumping.
