Grilled Chicken Soba Noodle

chicken soba noodle

This Chicken Soba Noodle Dish is a dish best served cold! It is a different take on your everyday pasta dish and the flavors are inspired by the Japanese.

NUTRITION

This recipe is packed with protein, however it is also a little carbohydrate heavy because of the soba noodles.  Per serving there are 400 calories, 11g of fat, 31g of carbs, and 40g of protein!  The protein and carb ratio make this recipe a perfect post workout meal. Lets go!!

CALLING ALL VEGETARIANS!

My inspiration for this dish came from Thug Kitchen! They make an eggplant recipe with this flavor profile however it is a bit more carbohydrate and oil heavy. I wanted to add some protein and tone it down a bit. If you are looking for the Vegetarian Eggplant version click here to buy the cookbook or just substitute eggplant for the chicken in my recipe below.  Please note: I would follow the ratio’s in my recipe because in my opinion they are healthier and better proportioned. I also swapped out some additional oils they used for the existing marinade.

GLUTEN-FREE

If you want to make this recipe Gluten-Free then use gluten-free linguini instead of the soba noodles. Also swap out the soy sauce for Tamari or gluten-free soy sauce.

WHERE TO BUY

I found most of the ingredients you see below at Von’s (Southern CA local market) and Trader Joe’s! Trader Joe’s has an entire oil/vinegar section that is affordable and easy to navigate. Your local market should have soba noodles in the international section! Check for sesame seeds in the nut or baking section!

Products I love to use when making this dish:

Oxo mixing Bowls

Calphalon Grill pan (perfect for when its cold outside and you can’t use the grill!)

    I didn’t have rice vinegar so I used apple cider vinegar (googled to see what was the best substitute) and i only had whole wheat spaghetti instead of soba noodles…this was so yummy! Fam loved it!
