Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
