Korean Glass Noodles with Chicken & Vegetables (Japchae Recipe)
If you've never tried Korean glass noodles, now's the time! This sweet potato noodle recipe, called Japchae, is filled with chicken, vegetables & tons of flavor!
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat and add the sweet potato noodles. Cook until the noodles are tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and rinse the noodles with cold water until they are cool. Toss with ½ teaspoon sesame oil.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce and agave nectar.
Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until the chicken is barely cooked through.
Add the red bell pepper and carrots, and cook for 1 minute. Add the garlic and spinach, and cook until the spinach is just wilted.
Add the cooked noodles, soy sauce mixture and ½ teaspoon sesame oil to the skillet and cook, tossing with tongs, until the noodles are heated through, about 1 minute. Serve hot.
Alternatively, toss the noodles, sauce and sesame oil with the vegetables, but don’t reheat the mixture. Serve at room temperature.
