From the Test Kitchen

The star of this dish is the umami-rich blend of soy sauce, creamy peanut butter spread, and sesame oil that we’re tossing together with tender lo mein and verdant veggies. It’s all topped with chicken roasted with a punchy glaze of sambal oelek, hoisin sauce, and more—also used as a finishing sauce for even more bold flavor.

Glazed Chicken & Peanut Noodles with Brussels Sprouts & Green Beans
Title
  • 4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 1 lb Fresh Lo Mein Noodles (Previously Frozen)
  • ½ lb Brussels Sprouts
  • 6 oz Green Beans
  • 1 Tbsp Sesame Oil
  • ¼ cup Hoisin Sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Sambal Oelek
  • 1 Tbsp Smooth Peanut Butter Spread
  • 2 Tbsps Soy Sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Rice Vinegar
  • 1 tsp Furikake
  • 2 tsps Honey
Prepare & start the chicken:
1 Prepare & start the chicken:

Remove the honey from the refrigerator to bring to room temperature. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven, then preheat to 450°F. Fill a large pot 3/4 of the way up with water; cover and heat to boiling on high. To make the glaze, in a bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, vinegar, honey (kneading the packet before opening), 1 tablespoon of warm water, and as much of the sambal oelek as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Transfer half the glaze to a bowl and set aside. Line a sheet pan with foil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper on both sides. Transfer to one side of the sheet pan. Evenly coat with the remaining glaze. Roast 10 minutes. Leaving the oven on, remove from the oven.
