Udon with chicken - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! You can easily swap chicken for tofu, shrimp, beef, or even mushrooms for a vegetarian version. Adjust cooking times accordingly (e.g., tofu needs less time than chicken).
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan with a splash of water to prevent drying out.
Try swapping udon with zucchini noodles (zoodles) or shirataki noodles for a lower-carb option. Cook these separately and add at the end to avoid sogginess.
For extra heat, add red pepper flakes or sriracha while cooking, or garnish with extra fresh chili peppers. Adjust to your preferred spice level.
Freezing isn't recommended as noodles can become mushy when thawed. For meal prep, store components separately (noodles + veggie/chicken mix) and combine when reheating.
Bok choy, snap peas, broccoli, or baby corn are great additions or substitutes. Cut them uniformly for even cooking.
After rinsing, toss noodles with a little sesame oil or olive oil. Cook them just until al dente (don't overcook), and stir-fry quickly with the other ingredients.
Yes! Use tamari instead of soy sauce and ensure your udon noodles are certified gluten-free (many are made with wheat). Check all sauce labels too.
