Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1.5 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 0.33 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 0.25 cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1.5 tbsp light brown sugar packed
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1.5 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp sriracha or chili sauce adjust to heat preference
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1.5 tbsp cornstarch for thickening
  • 2 tbsp water for slurry
  • 1.5 cup matchstick carrots
  • 1.5 cup thinly sliced red bell pepper
  • 1.5 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup snow peas trimmed
  • 0.5 cup sliced green onions divided, plus more for serving if you like
  • 12 oz dry spaghetti or lo mein noodles

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Whisk broth, soy sauce, hoisin, oyster sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, sriracha, and rice vinegar.
  • Place chicken in the slow cooker and pour the sauce over it.
  • Cover and cook on Low for about 3 hours, until the chicken shreds easily.
  • Stir cornstarch with water to make a slurry. Remove chicken and shred with two forks.
  • Whisk the slurry into the cooker. Switch to High and simmer 15 minutes to thicken.
  • Return shredded chicken to the thickened sauce and stir to coat.
  • Boil noodles in salted water until just shy of al dente. Drain well.
  • Add carrots, bell pepper, and mushrooms to the slow cooker. Cover 8–10 minutes until crisp-tender.
  • Fold in snow peas and most green onions for 2–3 minutes.
  • Toss in noodles until coated. Top with remaining green onions and serve hot.

Notes

Variation: Swap in thinly sliced flank steak or shrimp. Add broccoli florets with the carrots for extra crunch. For a spicier bowl, finish with chili crisp or extra sriracha.
Storage: Refrigerate up to 4 days; rewarm gently with a splash of broth to loosen the sauce.
