→ Sauce

02 - 60 ml soy sauce
03 - 30 g brown sugar
04 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 15 g fresh ginger, grated
06 - 15 ml sesame oil

09 - 100 g spinach or bok choy
10 - 2 green onions (scallions), thinly sliced
11 - 15 g toasted sesame seeds

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil. Add the chicken pieces and toss to coat evenly. Allow to marinate for a minimum of 15 minutes.
02 - Boil the noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
03 - Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat with a small amount of oil. Add the marinated chicken and cook, stirring frequently, until evenly browned and cooked through.
04 - Add the spinach or bok choy to the skillet and pour in the remaining marinade mixed with a cornstarch slurry (cornstarch dissolved in water). Stir continuously until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
05 - Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss thoroughly until ingredients are evenly combined and heated through.
06 - Transfer to serving dishes and top with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.

# Handy Cooking Tips:

01 - For optimal texture, avoid overcooking the noodles and add cornstarch slurry gradually to achieve desired sauce consistency.
