Yakisoba Chicken and Noodle Stir Fry (pics)

fence0407 · January 2016

Inspired by @Mattman3969 and his wok cooks I had to break the wok out. My new favorite wok cook. First time trying soba noodles and yakisoba sauce on a recommendation from a close friend.

First up, boil the soba noodles as directed:

Rinse under cold water and set aside (in fridge):

Also got a new infrared thermometer..get the wok hot!

Mise en place:

Garlic, sesame oil, peppers and onions up first:

Chicken up next with lite soy sauce:

Veggies added back in with a tad more lite soy sauce:

Soba noddles in with yakisoba sauce added:

Thanks Matt! I tell you...I got some catching up to do on the wok. Thanks for sharing your cooks! Have you ever tried yakisoba sauce?

Mattman3969 · January 2016

I have not. Would you mind sharing a recipe?

I actually used a store-bought bottle of it that a friend recommended:

Did some Googling though and did find this recipe. Not sure how it compares to the bottled stuff I used.

Thank you!! Something I noticed in Sky's Edge is Grace uses ketchup in several of her sauces. I never had before but it seriously works well with soy, rice wine and cornstarch. Looks like the only I have missed is the oyster sauce.

Interesting on the ketchup. I have yet to attempt one of her recipes. That might change soon!

That is a great cook! Is the yakisoba similar to a dark soy, teriyaki, oyster sauce? I've never seen it before.
I think we need to make Wok Wednesday a thing around here. Thanks for posting.

Thanks! I'd say it's somewhat similar to teriyaki sauce. I found this bottle at Buford Farmers Market, but I'd imagine any Asian grocery store would carry it. I also posted a recipe for it above. Never made it, but you might give it a shot if you can't find it in store. I agree on Wok Wednesday!
