Prepare the Noodles: Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add preferred noodles and cook according to package instructions, usually 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.

Sauté the Garlic: Add 3-4 cloves of minced garlic to the hot skillet, stir quickly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Cook the Chicken: Carefully add sliced boneless chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.

Add the Broccoli: Toss in the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until vibrant green and slightly tender.

Incorporate the Sauce: Pour in 1/4 cup of soy sauce and 1-2 tablespoons of chili paste, simmer for 1-2 minutes.

Combine the Noodles: Fold in the cooked noodles and heat through for another minute, ensuring everything is coated in sauce.

Final Seasoning and Serve: Season with salt and pepper to taste, serve hot garnished with optional sesame seeds or sliced green onions.
