Preparation
Step 1
Whisk all sauce ingredients together until smooth (or run it through the food processor, or shake it up in a jar).
Step 2
Cook noodles a few minutes LESS than package instructions. If your noodles seem very sticky, rinse them in cold water. Toss noodles with about half of the sesame sauce.
Step 3
Divide noodles, edamame, cucumber, and chicken into containers. Drizzle with a little extra sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Store in the fridge for 3-4 days. Eat hot or cold.
Step 4

Chef's notes
Cut a pound of chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. If you like a little browning on your chicken, once it’s baked, pop it in a skillet with some extra sesame sauce and let it get nice and roasty-browned on the outside!
