I created this dish this afternoon after coaching all morning and I was frozen to the bone. I have been cold lately and wanted something hot and spicy to warm me up. Have you ever tried Japanese glass noodles? They are used in Japanese stir fry’s and salads and they are made of starch. They are often called cellophane noodles as they appear to be clear. I used KELP noodles instead and it does the trick when you want noodles. If you ate this dish you would have no idea the noodles were kelp, I promise.

As I mentioned before kelp noodles are very tasty and good for you and I happened to have some in the fridge from something I made earlier in the week. I added whatever vegetables I had in my fridge as well as ginger and sambal oelek to warm me up. It worked beautifully on this cold, rainy day.

My kids would eat this for sure; what kid doesn’t love noodles? I would reduce the amount of sambal oelek if you are making it for your family. This recipe was enough for 2 servings for me.

Spicy Noodle Stir Fry

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 chicken breast (cut into cubes)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger, finely grated
  • 1/2 small red onion, sliced
  • 2 cups broccoli, chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 2 celery sticks, chopped
  • 1/2 pepper, I used yellow but red or orange will be fine
  • 1/2 package kelp noodles
  • 2 tbsp tamari
  • 2 tsp sambal oelek
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  1. In a large saute pan add coconut oil and chicken and brown on medium heat. Add to the pan ginger, garlic, onion, sambal oelek and continue to cook another minute or two.
  2. Add the chopped vegetables, cover and cook over medium heat for 3 – 4 minutes or until vegetables are starting to soften. I like mine crunchy so I don’t cook the vegetables for long.
  3. Add the kelp noodles and tamari and turn off the heat. You do not cook the noodles just warm them. Add fresh cilantro and serve. Yum!
