2 tablespoon peanut oil
4 chicken thighs chopped into small pieces, Note 1
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 red capsicum (bell pepper) seeds removed and finely sliced into long thin strips
400 grams/14 oz tin corn spears drained and rinsed, Note 2
8 green onions roots and tips trimmed, then cut into short pieces
4 servings ramen noodles Note 3

Noodle sauce: add the soy sauce, honey, garlic powder and onion powder to a jug and whisk to combine. Then set aside.
Chicken thighs: place a large saute pan on the stove, turn the heat to high and add the peanut oil. Give the oil a swish around and then add the chopped chicken, salt and pepper. Cook the chicken for 6- 8 minutes until it is golden brown on the edges and the juices run clear. Once the chicken is cooked, use a slotted spoon to lift it out of the pan and place it in a paper towel lined bowl.
Vegetables: without rinsing or cleaning the pan that the chicken was cooked in add the sliced capsicum, corn spears and green onions. Cook these for 2-3 minutes until they have a wet sweaty look.
Noodles: read and follow the instructions on the packet to cook the noodles then use a colander to drain them over the sink and discard the water. Then add the cooked noodles to the vegetables in the pan.
Chicken and sauce: next add the cooked chicken to the vegetables and noodles, then pour the sauce over the top.
Toss and combine: use a pair of chopsticks or kitchen tongs to toss and combine the noodles, sauce, chicken and vegetables.
To serve: garnish the dish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions to serve. Provide chopsticks for eating.

Note 1 - Chicken thighs: these are skinless, boneless chicken thighs chopped into small pieces.
Note 2 - Corn spears: if you can't find these in the tinned vegetable aisle look for them in the Asian foods section. You can usually get 2 versions. One is full spears and the other is pre chopped spears. Either will work and we need to drain and rinse them before using.
Note 3 - Ramen noodles: these are instant noodles, ramen noodles, 2 minute noodles. We discard the flavor packet and make our own flavors 😉👌.
