Method

  1. Boil the broccoli stems until tender, then rinse and drain in very cold water. If the stems are large, cut them in half lengthways.
  2. Cook the noodles following packet instructions, adding the edamame for the last minute and a half of cooking. Rinse well in cold water and drain thoroughly.
  3. Make a dressing by mixing the tamari, mirin, sesame oil, ginger and spring onion. Put the broccoli, noodles, edamame and chicken in a bowl. Pour over the dressing and toss together, adding some extra seasoning if you like.

    Very nice but I thought it needed more sauce (I doubled it). Also, I boiled the chicken thighs with some garlic paste.

    Yum! This was very tasty. I was out of Mirin, so substituted white wine + sugar and it still came out very nicely. I'll be making this again for a quick, healthy lunch.

    Delicious. Used dry sherry instead of mirin, and peas and broad beans instead of soy beans.

    Delicious! I used pre-cooked chicken breasts from the supermarket which made this a super quick and easy dinner. Next time we would try this as a warm dish.
