I’m still in Asian food mode..
The good folks over at
We tried the
I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs.
I normally marinate my chicken in a big, gallon sized ziploc bag but I wanted to show you the marinade in all it’s glory.
You only need to marinate the chicken for an hour if you’re strapped for time but longer is better and will give you more flavor. I actually marinated my chicken thighs overnight. You can also baste with the marinade as you grill or bake. This marinade also works in slow cookers, stir-frys or skillets.
Here’s my glorious, juicy chicken.
This marinade was delicious! You can obviously eat this with just about anything or even make a chicken sandwich but I chose to slice up my chicken and serve it on top of my soba noodles. Mixed with the zucchini, carrots and edamame, soy sauce and sesame oil. . it was amazing! And just on it’s own, just popping this chicken into my mouth was delicious! You’ve got to try this marinade.
I hope you enjoy!
Soba Noodles with Marinated Chicken
Ingredients
- 1 - 1 1/2 lbs. chicken thighs boneless, skinless
- 1 bottle Stubb's Chicken Marinade
- 4 ounces soba noodles Japanese buckwheat noodles
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil + more if needed
- 2-3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce to taste
- 1½ tablespoons brown rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 large carrot julienned and cut into inch long matchsticks
- 1 zucchini julienned and cut into inch long matchsticks
- shelled edamame
- dried seaweed nori, cut into strips (optional)
- sesame seeds to sprinkle on top
- For a spicy alternative mix in: 1½ tablespoons sweet chili sauce or sriracha sauce
Instructions
- Marinate your chicken in the Stubb's Chicken Marinade for at least 1-2 hours or overnight. Grill until the chicken is thoroughly cooked through, slice and set aside.
- Cook the soba noodles according to package directions (usually only 4-5 minutes), rinse, drain well and set aside.
- Combine the sesame oil, soy sauce, brown rice vinegar and brown sugar in a medium bowl and whisk together.
- Pour the soy sauce mixture over the soba noodles and mix to combine and coat the noodles. I prefer using disposable plastic gloves so I can mix with my hands. To serve: portion out the soba noodles into serving bowls, place the julienned carrots and zucchini and shelled edamame around the noodles and top with slices of the cooked chicken. Lightly drizzle more sesame oil and soy sauce over the top if desired. Top with dried seaweed and sesame seeds. Serve and enjoy immediately.

I want to try the BBQ Sauce
I want to try the BBQ sauce and the beef marinade.
BBQ is my favorite condiment!
I am interested in trying the Bar-B-Q Spice Rub
I’d like to try the Bar-b-q Spice Rub! My husband and I have recently gotten into dry rubs and would love to experiment with different flavors.
Looks lovely – not familiar with brown rice vinegar . . . . .do you have a favorite brand? Is it similar to anything you can think of?
Hi Mary Beth,
You can find brown rice vinegar at any Asian Market or Korean grocery store. The one I use is a Korean brand. You can also use red wine vinegar but maybe a tad less than what the recipe calls for. Mix, taste and adjust if necessary. I hope you give this recipe a try! 🙂
im obsessed with soba as well and using this sauce- you have taken it to another level.
Would love to try the Chicken Marinade.
The steak spice rub would be my first to try!

BBQ Spice Rub
Mmmm.. Love a good chicken marinade!
I’d like to try the Pork Rub or Liquid Smoke
the chicken marinade sounds incredible!
Steak! with steak rub… yum!!!
The Chicken Marinade sounds delicious!
i really want to try the chicken marinade
Just curious–as a vegetarian, it seems like this recipe would work equally well marinating tofu in Stubbs (unless the marinade is not vegetarian-fiendly). What do you think?
Hi Jenn,
Yes, you can use the marinade with tofu! I would try marinating and then pan frying or baking the tofu and then adding more marinade if desired while cooking too.
I’d love to try the steak marinade.
The chicken marinade looks delicious. I would like to try the steak rub.
That looks so healthy and refreshing, Alice. The next time I do a mass book purchase. I’ve been wanting it since it was published and your post has convinced me that I need it!
I think I’m most excited about the BBQ sauce, which is easily my favorite condiment!
That chicken marinade sounds amazing!!
I want to try both the BBQ and Steak rubs – looking for something that is better than my current rubs by as much as Stubb’s BBQ sauce is to my previous favorites.
Definitely Stubb’s Steak spice rub. Yum!
The idea of barbecue flavors with soba noodles never would’ve crossed my mind, but then what are friends for, right?? Thanks for this idea Alice! I adore soba noodles and barbecue, marinades, rubs, grilled, all of it!
Thanks for finally talking about > Soba Noodles with Marinated Chicken + A Stubb
