Who needs takeout anyway

Hello fellow foodies and food lovers.  Why reach for the takeout menu?  Just to over spend on food that is "SO SO", not to mention waiting 45 minutes plus just for it to get to you.  You know how to cook so lets make outstanding Chinese takeout.  We control the salt, heat, the sweet.  That is today's adventure homemade takeout. 

Gingered Chicken with Noddles 
4 (4oz) skinned, boned chicken breasts
1/4 teaspoon salt 
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon minced peeled ginger
2 teaspoons minced seeded jalapeno pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 1/2 cups sugar snap peas, trimmed
3/4 cup chicken broth 
1/2 cup Julienne- cut carrots 
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon chicken broth
2 cups hot cooked, Chinese-style egg noddles
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup chopped dry-roasted peanuts

• Sprinkle chicken with salt. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken. Sauté 3 minutes; turn chicken over. Add ginger, jalapeño, and garlic; cook 2 minutes, stirring often. Add peas, 3/4 cup broth, carrot, and soy sauce; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes or until chicken is done.
• Remove chicken and vegetables from pan with a slotted spoon. Combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon broth, and add to pan. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Place 1/2 cup noodles on each of 4 serving plates; top with 1/2 cup vegetables, one breast half, and sauce. Sprinkle each serving with 1 tablespoon cilantro and 1 tablespoon peanuts.
