Sweet Ginger Garlic Marinated Grilled Chicken and Sesame Noodles


This may be the best dang things I've ever made. I found a new spice mix called Sweet Ginger Garlic from Simply Asia. I bought it at Costco, though I'm sure it's available at grocery stores.

I marinated the chicken thighs for about 4 hours in the sweet ginger garlic seasoning and then grilled over super hot grill charring the chicken really well which is the way I like it. The flavor combination of the chicken, sesame noodles and then the Sriracha is out of this world.

I'm really glad to have documented this because I want to make this exactly the same way next time.

Ingredients:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs
Simply Asia sweet ginger garlic seasoning
1 package Japanese Udon noodles
1/8 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon lite soy sauce
Green onions
Chopped cilantro
Chopped nuts                                                            
Sriracha sauce or teriyaki sauce

Preparation: Chicken
Sprinkle the sweet ginger garlic seasoning on both sides of the chicken thighs and place in a large plastic bag and set in the refrigerator for 4 hours. To cook, preheat the grill to maximum heat and cook about 5 minutes per side and your done.

Preparation: Sesame Noodles
Prepare the Japanese Udon noodles according to the directions on the package. Generally, the noodles will cook in a large pot of non salted boiling water for 4 - 5 minutes. When cooked, rinse the noodles and place in a 12" sauté pan. Heat the noodles on medium heat. Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, green onions, chopped nuts and chicken stock. When the noodles are heated through it's ready to serve.

To serve, place the sesame noodles into a serving plate. Cut the chicken into strips and place on top of the noodles. Garnish the dish with chopped green onions, chopped cilantro, chopped nuts and drizzle with Sriracha sauce or teriyaki sauce
