a) Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the noodles.

a) When boiling, add the noodles to the water and cook until tender, 4 mins.
b) Once the noodles are cooked, drain in a sieve and run under cold water to stop them sticking together.
a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
b) Once hot, add the diced chicken and sliced pepper.
c) Stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through and the pepper has softened, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Review summary
Updated on Sept 2026- Flavour: The hoisin and sweet chilli combination delivers a satisfying sweet-and-savoury result that works well as a fakeaway; some find the sauce a little rich or sweet.
- Ease of prep: This is a genuinely quick midweek dish, ready in under 25 minutes with straightforward steps that even less confident cooks can follow.
- Suggestions: Keep a close eye on the noodles while prepping other ingredients, as they can overcook quickly; add extra veg such as mushrooms, spring onions, or carrots to bulk out the stir-fry. If the sauce tastes too strong, dilute it with a splash of water or use less hoisin; for more heat, add extra sweet chilli sauce at the end.
- Next-day meals: Portions are generous enough that leftovers keep well for lunch the next day.
- Portions: Feedback is mixed — some find the two-person serving ample, others suggest adding extra noodles or chicken to make it stretch further.
