Ingredients for Spicy Chicken Noodles
*Ingredient amounts are located in the recipe card at the end of this post.
- Chicken: For best results, use boneless skinless chicken breasts that have been diced into bite-sized pieces. You can also use a rotisserie chicken as well.
- Teriyaki Sauce: This will be used to season the chicken that is served with the noodles. I used Yoshida brand Teriyaki sauce.
- Noodles: Choose your favorite type of noodles including angel hair, spaghetti, ramen, zucchini noodles, or Shiritaki noodles.
- Vegetable Oil & Sesame Oil: These are used to create the sauce.
- Honey, Soy Sauce, Ginger, Peanut Butter, Rice Wine Vinegar, Sweet Chili Sauce: All of these ingredients come together to create the spicy Thai noodles sauce that is simply out of this world.

How to Make Spicy Thai Noodles with Chicken
[Step 1] Cook the noodles according to the package instructions in a large pot of water.

[Step 2] While the noodles are cooking, dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces and cook over medium-high heat in a little bit of olive oil until no pink remains and juices are clear. Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken and stir to coat. Keep warm and set aside.

[Step 3] In a large skillet over medium heat, add the vegetable oil, sesame oil, honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, peanut butter, rice vinegar, sweet chili sauce, and red pepper flakes. Stir until all ingredients are combined.

[Step 4] Pour the drained noodles into the pan with sauce and reduce the heat to low. Allow the noodles and sauce to cook until the sauce has reached your desired consistency, up to 10 minutes.

[Step 5] Mix the chicken into the noodles and garnish with chopped green onions.

What Types of Noodles Should I Use for This Noodle Recipe
- Ramen Noodles: I like to use Ramen noodles in this spicy Thai noodle bowl because the noodles are really quick to prepare. Just follow the directions on the back of the package. When the noodles are cooked, drain the water and don’t use the included seasoning packet!
- Angel Hair Pasta: Another type of noodles that works well in this recipe is Angel Hair pasta. I like it because the noodles are thin. To prepare Spicy Thai Noodles using Angel Hair, follow the directions on the package, cooking the pasta until al dente.
- Zucchini Noodles (Zoodles): If you are looking for a low carb/low calorie option for this recipe, zucchini noodles are a great choice! Simply use a vegetable spiralizer to turn your zucchini into noodles, sauté them with a littl oil I’ve oil or butter, and add them to the prepared sauce.
- Shiritaki Noodles: Another low carb/low calorie choice for this recipe. They have a neutral taste and are a great match for the spicy sauce. All you need to do to prepare Shiritaki noodles is to pour out the contents of the package into a collander, rinse with water, and add to the prepared sauce.
