Hoisin Chicken with Noodles and Green Beans

Ingredients
¹⁄₂ pound green beans, trimmed and cut in half
3 packages ramen noodles, seasoning packet discarded (I recommend Top Ramen.)

1 small lime, juiced
3 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 pound ground chicken
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch green onions, chopped

Instructions
1. Bring large pot of salted water to boil.  Add green beans and cook 6 to 10 minutes, or until tender.  Add ramen during last 3 minutes of cooking time.  Drain well. 

2. Combine hoisin sauce, lime juice and chili sauce in small bowl. 

3. Heat oil in large skillet over high heat and cook chicken until no pink remains.  Add garlic and cook until softened.  Stir in hoisin mixture.  Cook until bubbly.  Add noodles, green beans and green onions and stir until well combined. 

Comments
This recipe is from Kitchen Simplicity and is the first time I’ve ever used ramen in cooking.  I was very pleased with the results!  The sauce was just a teeny bit too spicy, so I might use a little less chili sauce next time I make it.  I thought it was delicious and the guys enjoyed it as well.  Since I was only able to get ramen in 6 packs, I guess I’ll need to figure out something to do with the other 3 packs now!
