To prepare this meal, you typically need to heat a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the contents of the package directly to the hot skillet. Stir the ingredients frequently as they cook, ensuring the chicken is thoroughly heated and the vegetables are tender-crisp. The sauce will thicken and coat the noodles and other components as it heats. This process usually takes around 8 to 10 minutes, depending on your stovetop and desired tenderness of the vegetables. Serve immediately after cooking.
