Peanut-Miso Noodles with Chicken Mince

Peanut-Miso Noodles with Chicken Mince

By OcadoLifePublished on 06 October 2026Hooked on miso? You’ll love these Peanut-Miso Noodles with Chicken Mince from OcadoLife food editor Lauren Hoffman. Red miso is richer and more caramelised than white, and it brings an intense savoury note to the mince, which works brilliantly with the peanut butter and maple syrup. Together with noodles and pak choi, it makes a great midweek recipe that the whole family will love. For a veggie spin, try plant-based mince.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp smooth peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp red miso
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp groundnut or vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp ginger and garlic paste
  • 500g chicken mince
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3 (250g) nests noodles of your choice
  • 2 pak choi, leaves separated
  • ½ lemon (optional)
  • 2 tbsp chopped peanuts (optional)
  • 2 salad onions, sliced (optional)

Method

  • Step 1

    Mix the peanut butter, red miso and maple syrup in a bowl with 3 tbsp hot water until runny and smooth. Set aside.

  • Step 2

    Heat the oil in a large pan or wok over high heat. Add the ginger and garlic paste, fry for 1 min, then add the chicken mince. Cook for 5 mins (approx.), stirring occasionally, until cooked through and starting to catch. Add the soy with 1 tbsp of the peanut-miso sauce and toss to coat.

  • Step 3

    Meanwhile, soak the noodles in boiling water for 3 mins (approx.) to soften. Drain well, then toss with the remaining peanut-miso sauce until well coated.

  • Step 4

    Add the pak choi to the pan of mince; stir-fry for 2 mins (approx.) until just wilted. Tip in the dressed noodles and toss everything together over the heat until warmed through. Add a squeeze of lemon, if you like.

  • Step 5

    Divide between bowls and top with the chopped peanuts and salad onions, if using.
