The Perfect Sauce
To create the sauce, simply whisk together 1 1/2 tablespoons of light brown sugar, 1 large minced garlic clove, 1 1/2 teaspoons of grated fresh ginger, 2 thinly sliced green onions, 3 tablespoons of reduced-sodium tamari or soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of unseasoned rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of canola oil, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of toasted sesame oil. Set it aside for later.
Stir-Fry Magic
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook 9 ounces of fresh Chinese egg noodles (or 8 ounces of spaghetti or linguine) until al dente. Drain and set aside. In a wok or large frying pan, warm a glug of canola oil until it shimmers. Add 1 large carrot, peeled and cut into matchsticks, and 1 small red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and cut into small slices. Sauté, stirring, until just tender.
The Final Touches
Add the cooked noodles to the pan, along with the reserved sauce and 1 cup of cooked, shredded chicken. Add Sriracha to taste. Stir-fry until warmed through and well combined, using tongs to get the noodles really well coated. Divide between bowls, sprinkle with 1/4 cup of chopped toasted peanuts, and serve immediately.
