- 1/4 Cup Red Bell Pepper, Sliced Thin
- 1/4 Cup Snow Peas, Cut in Half
- 1/4 Cup Mushrooms, Sliced

Directions:
- In a large sauté pan or wok heated over medium high heat add the avocado oil and chicken and sauté for 2-5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
- Meanwhile bring a pot of water to a boil and cook Chinese noodles for 4 minutes.
- Add the carrot, bell pepper, snow peas, mushrooms and ginger to the chicken and stir to combine. Then add the hoisin sauce and oyster sauce.
- Drain the noodles and then add them directly into the chicken mixture and toss to combine. If the sauce is too thick you can add a couple tablespoons of the noodle water to thin it out.
