Made the noodles tonight – it was good but I would definitely reduce the sesame oil as it seemed to be somewhat overpowering. I am excited to know that I can make these at home now. THANKS

Dana, I loved this! The chicken browned nicely, just as you said; even though I overcooked the chicken a little bit, it was still delish. (next time I’ll pound the chicken down just enough to make them ‘even’) I marinated it far longer than 3 hours, though not intentionally. (Life has a way of interfering, you know.) The true star of this recipe is the NOODLES! I used vermicelli because I prefer a thinner noodle for something like this. I adore sesame, and this was wonderful! I’m going to experiment by adding some nice spicy chili sauce to the noodles next time, and serving them as a cold noodle appetizer! Thanks for the recipe!

Wow. If could give this 10 stars, I would. Wow. Made this the other night and it was devoured quite quickly–too quickly. I want s’more, lol…
…The marinade is definitely a keeper–made the chicken SO moist and flavorful. The pasta sauce rocked too. I’ll definitely be doin’ the funky chicken again and again!
