Buckwheat Noodles with Chicken and Vegetables

Clear broth with chicken and egg noodles

Buckwheat noodles, also known as soba, is a traditional Japanese dish that is prepared as easily and quickly as regular noodles. Buckwheat noodles with chicken and vegetables are particularly delicious: the meat in this dish is juicy and tender, and the vegetables are fragrant and slightly crispy. The soy sauce with a hint of lemon perfectly complements the noodles, which have a light buckwheat flavor and aroma.

Prepare the ingredients according to the list. You can add more vegetables or spices to your taste (for example, ginger, lemon juice, and soy sauce). This recipe does not include salt in the ingredients, as soy sauce is already salty enough. But if you feel something is missing, you can always season the dish at the end of cooking. If you like spicy dishes, you can add a little finely chopped fresh chili pepper or ground red pepper. All ingredients should be thinly sliced ​​to cook faster in hot oil. Carrots can be grated using a special Korean carrot grater (if not available, slice it into thin strips or grate it using the large side of a grater), slice the sweet pepper into thin strips, and the onion into half circles. Grate fresh ginger using a grater (if there is no fresh ginger, you can use ginger powder), and pass the garlic through a press. At the same time as starting to cook the meat and vegetables, bring water to a boil and cook buckwheat noodles according to the instructions on the package. When the noodles are ready, drain them in a colander, rinse them with cold water, and let the water drain. My package recommended spraying the noodles with olive oil to prevent sticking - I recommend doing the same.
