Sesame seedsfor topping
Instructions
To make the marinade and sauce:
Heat the sesame oil over medium heat in a small pot.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and cook for one minute, stirring often.
Add the soy sauce, mirin, pineapple, honey, and ginger (if using). Turn the heat off.
Pour the marinade into a blender. Blend until smooth.
Remove ⅓ cup marinade and add it to a plastic zip bag along with the chicken. Place in fridge to marinate. Marinate at least 30 minutes. This can be done up to one day in advance.
Pour the remaining marinade back into the pot. Whisk in the cold water and corn starch.
Heat over medium, stirring often, until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat.
To make the noodle bowls:
When you’re ready to heat, grill the chicken on a BBQ, electric grill, or bake in a preheated 400 degree oven.
Steam the broccoli by placing in a microwave safe bowl with 1 tbsp of water. Microwave for 2-3 minutes or until softened but still crisp.
Layer your bowls with: 1 package of Nupasta Spaghetti, ½ cup each of the broccoli, mushrooms, shredded carrots, bell peppers, and snap peas, ¼ cup of green onions, ⅙ of the cooked chicken (sliced), ¼ cup teriyaki sauce, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Notes
This is a great "choose your own adventure" meal where you put all the ingredients in separate bowls and each person can decide what toppings they would like to serve themselves!
