Yum Cha Noodles
Ingredients
- 1 packet of 2-minute noodles (seasoning packet not needed)
- ⅓ cup diced leftover BBQ chicken
- ⅓ cup diced ham
- Oyster sauce
- 1 egg
- Sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil and cook the noodles for 2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- While the noodles are cooking, heat a small frypan over medium heat. Lightly pan-fry the diced chicken and ham for 1-2 minutes, until heated through and slightly golden. Transfer to a plate.
- In the same pan, cook an egg to your preferred doneness - whether sunny-side up, over-easy or fully cooked.
- Return the drained noodles to the hot saucepan. Add the pan-fried chicken and ham, then drizzle with 1-2 tablespoons of oyster sauce. Stir until well combined.
- Transfer the noodle mixture to a serving plate or bowl. Place the cooked egg on top and drizzle with a little more oyster sauce if desired. Sprinkle with sesame seeds for extra flavour and crunch.
