Japchae, or Chapchae, is a delightful Korean dish that features stir-fried glass noodles with a colorful medley of vegetables and tender slices of chicken. This particular version of Japchae excludes the commonly used carrots, sesame oil, garlic, spinach, and sugar, offering a unique twist on the classic recipe. Instead, it focuses on the savory blend of chicken, bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms, all seasoned with soy sauce and enhanced with the subtle crunch of bell peppers and the earthy tones of mushrooms. Without the sesame seeds as a garnish, this dish keeps its flavors straightforward yet delicious.

Preparation

Begin by preparing your ingredients: slice the chicken thinly, julienne the bell peppers, slice the onions and mushrooms. Ensure the glass noodles are prepared according to the package instructions.

Cooking

In a large skillet or wok, heat a small amount of cooking oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken and cook until it’s no longer pink. Remove the chicken and set aside. In the same skillet, add the bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms, stir-frying until they are just tender. Return the chicken to the pan, then add the cooked glass noodles and soy sauce. Mix well to ensure that the noodles, vegetables, and chicken are evenly coated with the sauce and heated through.

Seasoning

Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to stir fry until everything is well combined and the flavors have melded together.
