Nadiya Hussains Teriyaki Chicken Noodles Recipes

TERIYAKI CHICKEN NOODLES

Steps:

• To make the sauce, mix the hot water and sugar in a large roasting dish, stirring to allow the sugar to melt and the water to cool. This should only take a few minutes. Add the soy sauce, ginger, garlic and chilli flakes, if using, and mix well.
• Add the chicken, cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes. The chicken doesn't have to marinate at all if you are in a rush but, if there is time, marinate in the sauce overnight so the sauce really soaks into the chicken. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.
• Roast the chicken for 25 minutes, or until cooked through and the juices run clear with no trace of pink when the thickest part is pierced with a skewer. Take the chicken thighs out of the roasting dish, leaving the marinade behind.
• Add the 5 nests of noodles to the roasting dish, flipping them over to coat them in the liquid. If the marinade has become quite dry, add up to another 300ml/10fl oz hot water.
• Put the chicken back on top of each noodle nest and put back into the oven for 10 minutes to allow the noodles to absorb the moisture. Garnish with the coriander, spring onions, red chilli and sesame seeds and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes. Pour boiling water over the top and mix until sugar is dissolved. Pour marinade into a 9×13 inch pan. Add the chicken thighs in a single layer. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 12 hours.
• Set oven to 400 degrees F. Remove the plastic from the 9×13 inch pan and place it in the oven. Bake the chicken in the marinade for 30 minutes, or until an inserted thermometer reaches 165 degrees F.
• Once the chicken is cooked, remove the pan from the oven and transfer all the chicken to a plate or bowl. Add the hot water and the vermicelli noodle bundles. Place the chicken thighs on top of the noodles. Bake for another 10 minutes, until the noodles are softened. If the noodles are still dry, add an additional 1/2 cup of hot water and bake for 5 more minutes.
• Serve the chicken and noodles with green onions and sesame seeds.
