Step-by-step cooking

Step 1:
How to make chicken with buckwheat noodles? Prepare the products. If the beans are frozen, then leave it as it is, without defrosting. As spices, I took red and black pepper.
Step 2:
Wash the chicken fillet, dry it with a towel and cut it first into strips, then into small pieces.
Step 3:
Wash the vegetables and cut them into approximately the same pieces: onion in half rings, carrot and pepper in cubes.
Step 4:
Heat the frying pan, pour vegetable oil into it and put the chopped fillet. Fry until the color changes completely, stirring all the time with a spatula. Reduce the heat and leave the chicken to fry for 5 minutes.
Step 5:
Add chopped vegetables and beans to the chicken, mix. The fire can be made big again. Fry with constant stirring. Season, add soy sauce and quite a bit of salt, because the sauce itself is salty, try before salting.
Step 6:
Cover the pan with a lid and leave the chicken and vegetables to simmer on low heat for 10 minutes.
Step 7:
Meanwhile, cook the noodles. Take a large saucepan, boil water, add a little salt to it and throw buckwheat noodles without breaking. Cook for about 8 minutes. Then put the noodles in a colander and rinse with cold water, so it won't stick together.
Step 8:
Add the finished noodles to the chicken, mix well. Cover with a lid and leave to languish for 3 minutes on low heat so that the noodles are warmed up and soaked in flavors. Enjoy your meal!

If you've ever tried soba, you know that it has a pretty neutral taste. And it is vegetables that help her to "reveal" all her qualities. We really love this dish, I cook it often. In season I take fresh vegetables, in winter I use frozen ones.
You can cook such noodles without chicken at all, with only vegetables, or add mushrooms instead of meat. Meat, by the way, you can also take any - pork or beef.
If you like spicy, then add grated ginger root, garlic or hot pepper to the vegetables.
Such noodles are always prepared for one time, they are not stored, take this into account.

Important! An incorrectly selected frying pan can ruin even the best recipe. All the details on how to choose the perfect frying pan for different dishes read here .

When adding soy sauce to a dish, it is worth considering that it has a rather salty taste. Reduce the total amount of salt, otherwise you risk over-salting.
