Easy Chicken Zucchini Noodle Stir Fry Recipe

Our boys like vegetables, but they don’t love them. They don’t jump up and down and beg for vegetables like they do with berries, yogurt, and cookies. Hopefully, someday they will do a front flip when I tell them salad is for dinner:) Right now, we are taking things one bite at a time!

Caleb and Maxwell do get excited when we get out our Inspiralizer to make dinner. They think it is the coolest kitchen tool…and it is! They love watching us turn vegetables into noodles! It’s like we have our own magic show in our kitchen..ha!

We recently used our Inspiralizer to make Easy Chicken Zucchini Noodle Stir Fry and the boys cleaned their plates! Ok, some noodles fell on the floor, but they were having a good time slurping up the noodles so I didn’t care:)

Ingredients
  

For the Sauce:

  • 1/3 cup chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or Tamari sauce
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sriracha sauce more or less, depending on how spicy you want it

For the Stir Fry:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 8 oz. boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into cubes
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 red bell pepper cut into strips
  • 1 carrot cut into strips
  • 1/2 red onion cut into strips
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 zucchini spiralized into noodles

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the broth, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, cornstarch, sesame oil, ginger, and Sriracha sauce. Set aside.
  • Place a large sauté pan or wok over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and allow it to get hot, this will take about a minute. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • Heat the pan back up and add the other tablespoon of olive oil. Add the peppers, carrot, red onion, snap peas, mushrooms, and garlic. Cook, stirring constantly, until vegetables are tender, but still crisp, about 4 minutes. Add the sauce to the pan and cook until the sauce thickens up, about 2-3 minutes. Add the chicken to the pan and stir to combine. Gently stir in the zucchini noodles. Cook for 1 minute, making sure the noodles are well coated with the sauce.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Note-if you want to make the stir fry vegetarian or vegan, you can leave out the chicken. For gluten free, make sure you use Tamari sauce.

  1. This looks so DELISH! I love that it is totally loaded with veggies and all the color makes this look SO good too! I could eat an entire bowl full and not feel one bit of guilt! 🙂 #veggiewin

  2. My kids love spiralizing with us too! They’d rather spiralize than use their bounce house (indoors because we’re weird like that). It’s great that I can get this meal done in under 30 minutes. I’m on dinner duty once a week, great wife cooks the rest of the time. This will be my next turn! 

  3. As a diabetic, I absolutely love veggie noodles and this looks absolutely delicious! 🙂 I have a small handheld spiralizer that I’m not the craziest about, so I just may have to check out that inspiralizer. That looks more like what I need and much easier!! Thanks for sharing!! 

    1. Hi Alison, I am also a diabetic. Making spiralizer noodles has helped me bring my numbers back under control. I was feeling so depraved about not being able to eat pasta (even whole grain) or rice (even brown rice). I am an Italian and it goes against my upbringing.
      My husband bought me the KitchenAid spiralizer for Christmas. I really didn’t like it and it was so expensive. I was able to return it and I purchased the Inspiralizer. I find it easy to use and clean. Hope my comments have helped.

  4. This looks delicious! My sources tell me that I’ll be getting an Inspiralizer for my birthday, so I’m looking forward to playing around with it with recipes like this!

  5. These noodles look so delicious! Even though I am not much of a fan of zucchini noodles, I love your recipes & I know this will rock too!!

  6. Ha! I just made a recipe like this the other day because my kids are obsessed with stir fry right now! It’s so fast and easy- yours looks delicious!

  7. This looks absolutely perfect, Maria! So bright and delicious. Pinning and can’t wait to try soon. 🙂

  8. Ever since I purchased a spiralizer I’ve been on the lookout for simple weeknight meals. This looks delicious and flavorful! 

  9. Yessss! This totally just transported me to summer and I can’t wait for more dishes like this!

  10. Love zucchini noodles too! I made this recipe for lunch earlier today but substituted chicken with tofu. I also added toasted sesame seeds and roasted cashew nuts, came out great. 

  11. Just made this for dinner tonight! AMAZING!! Even the kids went crazy! Definitely will go into rotation! Great with some fresh pineapple on the side!

    I’ve wanted to try zucchini noodles for a long time. Finally bought a veggetti and googled for recipes with chicken since that’s what I have. I found this and it was amazing!! Even my picky 15 yr old loved it! Thank you!

  13. Excellent Dish. I could not find snow peas so I put in broccoli. I think the zucchini noodles needed a little longer to cook but everything was very good. I will definitely make this again. Thank you so very much.
    Yum!

    This came out really good. My husband loved it. I left out the mushrooms, and I couldn’t find snap peas, but was still very tasty.
