- 2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 150 g (5 oz) snow peas
- 150 g (5 oz) mushrooms, sliced

- 1½ tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

- Optional toppings: sesame seeds, extra green onion
Instructions
- Cook the rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- Lightly season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok over high heat. Stir-fry chicken for 4–5 minutes until nearly cooked. Remove and set aside.
- Add remaining oil, then sauté garlic and ginger for 30 seconds.

Notes
- Swap chicken with tofu, shrimp, or tempeh for variation.

- Try other vegetables like broccoli or bok choy.
- Add a spoonful of peanut butter to the sauce for a creamy twist.
- Reheat with a splash of water to refresh sauce texture.
