Method
In a bowl or Tupperware combine the marinade ingredients and season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and mix well then leave to marinate for as long as possible or can be used straight away.
For the sauce, simply combine all the ingredients, mix well then leave to one side.
Get a large pan/wok over a high heat and once hot add a splash of oil. Add the chicken and fry for 5 minutes or till cooked through and there is no liquid left in the pan. Do this in batches if need be or in 2 separate pans, then place in a bowl to one side.
Give the pan/wok a wipe, add another splash of oil then add the veg. Stirfry for 5 minutes or till the veg just starts to soften, at this point return the chicken and mix it all.
If you are having noodles now is the time to add them to the pan. Pour in the sauce then give it a final mix, and then you are good to go.
