Ingredients

2 servings Udon
10 Shiitake Mushroom sliced
2-3 boneless chicken thigh
Salt and Pepper
2 tsp Oregano
1 tbsp Garlic Powder
1.5 tbsp Garlic minced
1 cup Cream
1 tbsp Miso Paste
Green Onion
Seaweed Powder optional

Instructions

Pour hot water over frozen udon so udon can separate, drain and set aside.
Cut the chicken in bite-size pieces and season with salt and pepper, oregano, and garlic powder.
In a hot pan, add in 1 tbsp of oil and add in the seasoned chicken. Saute the chicken for 3-4 minutes.
Add in the sliced mushroom and minced garlic and saute together for another 2-3 minutes.
Pour in cream, miso paste, mix well.
Add in the udon and let it sit, and soak in all the sauce for 2-3 minutes.
Optional, but HIGHLY recommended, add in 2 tbsp of butter right before serving. Garnish with some green onion, seaweeds & you are ready to serve!!

Notes

Frozen Udon is fresher than vacuum-sealed udon; therefore, it can absorb more of the sauce and not break as easily. You can easily find Frozen Udon in the Asian Freezer section near potstickers. Pour hot water all over the udon before cooking to separate the udon. This step will cut down the cooking time and prevent the udon from becoming soggy. If you can only access vacuum-sealed udon, microwave for 30 seconds to help separate the udon before adding it to the sauce.
