Season the chicken with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In a 2-cup measuring cup or bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups water with the soy sauce and vinegar. Set this mixture aside.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides (the chicken will not be fully cooked yet). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Add the remaining neutral oil and the sesame oil to the skillet. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the crushed red pepper. Add the pasta and stir to coat it in the garlic mixture. Pour in the reserved soy sauce mixture and stir until everything is well combined, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.

Add the chicken and any accumulated juices back to the skillet along with the brown sugar. Stir and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked and the sauce has thickened, 10 to 12 minutes. Add more water as needed to keep the mixture saucy until the pasta is done. Stir in the green onions, sesame seeds, and more crushed red pepper if desired.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
