Delicious Ginger Chicken with Mushrooms and Noodles – ready from wok to bowl in less than 30 mins

I love the flavors in this dish, fragrant ginger, with the saltiness from the soy sauce and sweetness of mirin. You don’t need jarred sauces to make delicious stir fry dishes.  Just basic ingredients can make a really tasty stir fry dish like this Ginger Chicken with Mushrooms and Noodles.

Pair your favourite vegetables into this Ginger Chicken with Mushrooms and Noodles to up those speed foods, I love shredded cabbage, broccoli slaw or carrot which I make into little ribbons using my julienne peeler.

Can I enjoy this Ginger Chicken with Mushrooms and Noodles on a Slimming World SP day? 

Swap out the egg noodles for something like spiralized butternut squash, swede or even zucchini and this would be perfect on a SP day. I use my countertop spiralizer like this one below:

which is perfect for spiralizing various vegetables. It’s super useful to have, for making meals interesting when you want to increase your speed foods.

If you don’t fancy chicken, feel free to swap for fresh salmon or shrimp or even pork. It really is a versatile dish that the whole family will love. You could even just use vegetables for a meat-free dish – yummy
