Instructions
Marinating the Chicken
Step 1

Chop the boneless chicken thighs into ½ inch cubes, and place them into a bowl. Keep in mind that sauces are already salty, so hold back when sprinkling salt and pepper.
Step 2
Add the next ingredients into the same bowl: egg white, corn starch, and soy sauce.
Step 3
Use your fingers to mix the marinade and coat the chicken evenly. Set on the side.
Chopping, Frying, and Simmering
Step 4
Mince fresh ginger and some garlic, plus chop celery stick very finely.
Step 5

In a nonstick skillet, pour sunflower or any other frying oil and heat it up to high temperature. Arrange marinated chicken and fry it quickly to crisp it up.
Step 6
A few minutes in the pan will be enough to form the crunch and adopt dark brown color. Take out the chicken.
Step 7
In the same pan golden minced garlic. Add ginger and celery, fry for 2 minutes while stirring occasionally.
Step 8
Mix up hoisin and chili sauce into the same pan and add crisped chicken.
Step 9
Give it a proper stir and combine meat and sauce well. Pour in some chicken broth, and simmer lightly. Spice more according to your taste – but test it first!
Step 10
When the broth is half reduced, mix up cornstarch in water and combine it with the sauce. Simmering will take about 10 minutes
Preparing the Sides
Step 11

While the chicken is simmering slice zucchini, red, and green bell pepper.
Step 12
Add a bit of vegetable oil into a skillet and fry peppers first.
Step 13
When they soften, add zucchini, salt, and pepper, and finish frying. This will take about 10 minutes.
Step 14

Boil some water and cook the noodles in it, 5 minutes is enough. Season it to taste – salt, chili, and garlic powder.
Serving
Step 15
On a plate, place the noodles first, and top them with saucy chicken and stir-fry vegetables.
Step 16

Drizzle it with chill-garlic oil and sprinkle with some chopped spring onion. Enjoy!
