Sesame Chicken Noodles are designed to amaze and satisfy. There’s something just so wonderful about the tender chicken, the pan-seared and crisp-tender vegetables, and the deep poultry and umami flavors infused throughout, being absorbed by the extra-tasty noodles. The nutty, almost buttery sesame flavor also enhances and enchants everything thanks to the sesame oil everything is cooked in.
