OODLES OF NOODLES
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the noodles. Cook the noodles until al dente, 7-8 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water.
PEANUT SAUCE
Using a whisk or fork, whisk the brown sugar and the soy sauce mix in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Add the peanut butter, the grated Garlic, and the sesame & chilli mix (to taste). Mix until combined and emulsified.
BUBBLE IT UP
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the noodles. Cook the noodles until al dente, 7-8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 tbsp of the cooking water, and rinse in cold water. Mix the reserved cooking water into the peanut sauce until silky.
WHILE THE NOODLES ARE COOKING...
Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel, and cut into bite-sized cubes. Place a pan or wok over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the chicken until golden but not completely cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Toss through the sliced Cabbage and the grated carrot until heated but still crunchy, 1-2 minutes. Pour in the peanut sauce and toss until the chicken is coated and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Season and remove from the heat.

Make a bed of the scrumptious egg noodles and top with the silky Chicken stir-fry. Simply delicious!
