Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

1. 1Cut the about 680 g of chicken breast into thin slices, about 0.635 cm thick. Place the sliced chicken in a bowl and add 1 tbsp of soy sauce. Stir to coat the chicken evenly, then let it marinate for 10 minutes.
2. 2Thoroughly rinse and drain the about 450 g of shirataki noodles under cold running water. Set them aside.
3. 3Heat 1 tsp of sesame oil in a large 30.48 cm skillet or wok over medium-high heat, which is about 190°C. Add the marinated chicken slices in a single layer. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, until the chicken is browned and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 74°C. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
4. 4Add the about 225 g of mushrooms, 1 cup of bamboo shoots, and 0.5 cup of water chestnuts to the same skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
5. 5In a small bowl, whisk together the about 113 g of cream cheese, 0.5 cup of chicken broth, the remaining 1 tbsp of soy sauce, 2 cloves of minced garlic, and 1 tbsp of grated ginger until smooth. Whisk in 0.25 tsp of xanthan gum until fully combined.
6. 6Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened and coats the ingredients, about 82°C.
7. 7Add the rinsed and drained about 450 g of shirataki noodles to the skillet. Toss everything together gently to ensure the noodles and other ingredients are well coated with the sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the noodles are heated through.
8. 8Serve the Keto Moo Goo Gai Pan immediately while hot.
