Spicy Chicken Noodles

We used to order spicy chicken noodles from a nearby food outlet and this was our favourite over there. I thought of trying this at home. I concluded the ingredients by merely remembering its taste. And lo I am almost there. Though the dish was not exactly the same that we ordered, yet it was too good. Do try this out.

Note: By noodles I mean the spaghetti.


Ingredients:
Noodles - 150 grams
Boneless chicken pieces - 25 grams
Egg - 1
onions - 35 grams
beans - 20 grams
carrots - 20 grams
tomatoes - 15 grams
ginger/garlic paste - 5 grams
soya sauce - 1 spoon
garam masala - 3 grams
red chilly powder - 5 grams
Green chillies - 2 slitted
pepper powder - 5 grams
Salt - to taste
Oil - 25 grams

Method:

  • Boil 2 cups of water. Add little salt and one spoon of oil. Immerse the noodles in this boiling water. Cover and keep aside for 5 minutes.
  • Drain the noodles in a colander and show them in running water, so that the noodles don't stick to each other.
  • Chop the onions, beans, carrots, tomatoes into small pieces.
  • Chop the chicken into smaller pieces. I had marinated the chicken with salt, turmeric powder, ginger/garlic paste and red chilly powder and kept aside for about 2 hours.
  • Microwave the beans, carrots and chicken pieces for about 4 minutes.
  • Beat the egg with little salt and pepper powder and keep it aside.
  • In a kadai, pour oil. Add the chopped onions, ginger/garlic paste and slit green chillies. Fry until the onions turn translucent.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes. Add salt, and all the powders. Mix well. Cover and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the cooked beans, carrots and chicken pieces. Pour the soya sauce and mix well.
  • Now pour the beaten egg. Mix well. The egg should spread uniformly and become scramble pieces.
  • Now add the noodles, mix well and heat for another 2 minutes.




Spicy chicken noodles is ready!! Serve with tomato sauce.

Tips:
I used tomatoes. This can be replaced with tomato sauce.
Instead of chicken pieces, vegetarians can use mushrooms or soya chunks.
