"Generously flavored with garlic and ginger this recipe is a simple stir-fry of chicken, mushrooms and baby spinach tossed with Japanese soba noodles. We like the nutty flavor and firm texture of these noodles in this dish, but you could just as easily substitue whole wheat or regular spaghetti...."
