Add two cups of water in a pot and bring to a boil. Throw in a pinch of salt. Use tongs and carefully add in the zucchinis in the pot, you could use your hands too but be careful the boiling water could splash on you.Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the noodles are soft and not soggy. Turn off the heat and drain the water.

As mentioned earlier, I will serve the noodles with chicken. Cut the chicken into thin slices and marinate with dark dark and light soy sauce for 10 minutes or more. Place a wide pan on medium heated oven and add the chicken. Spread the chicken on the pan to avoid stewing. Resist the urge turn the chicken before its brown on the bottom side. This should take 5 minutes if the pan was hot enough.Flip and cook the bottom side until the chicken is fully cooked. Internal temperature of cooked chicken is 165 degrees.
Finally plate the food. in a bowl add in the stir fried chicken, then the zoodles then pour the homemade tomato sauce on top. Bon appetite.
