Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450˚. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add skin-side down to the skillet. Cook, moving the chicken occasionally, until the skin is browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Flip the chicken, transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Stem the kale and thinly slice the leaves; trim and thinly slice the Brussels sprouts. Toss the kale and Brussels sprouts in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon vinegar and a big pinch of salt; set aside until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook as the label directs. Drain and run under cold water until cool, then add to the vegetables.
- Whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar, the pickled ginger and brine, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the noodle mixture; toss well. Add half of the sesame seeds and toss; season with salt and pepper. Divide the noodle mixture and chicken among plates; sprinkle with the remaining sesame seeds.

Steps:
- Add the chicken thighs to a large resealable freezer bag.
- In a medium bowl or large mason jar, combine the soy, sugar, honey, rice wine vinegar, vegetable oil, Asian chili sauce, lime juice, ginger, sesame oil, hot chili oil, pepper, scallion whites and garlic. Whisk or shake until the sugar has completely dissolved.
- Add a third of the marinade to the bag with the chicken and toss to completely cover. Marinate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Refrigerate the remaining marinade in a jar, covered, until ready to cook.
- Cook the soba noodles according to the package instructions. Rinse until cool, then set aside in a bowl.
- Heat a grill pan or cast-iron pan over medium heat.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade. (Discard any used marinade left in the freezer bag.) Cook the chicken, turning, until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes a side. Remove to a cutting board and slice into strips.
- Add the reserved jarred marinade to a medium pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and remove from the heat. Pour half of the marinade over the noodles in the bowl and toss until completely coated and warmed through. Add the sliced peppers and toss.
- Pile the noodles onto a platter, arrange the sliced chicken on top and garnish with the reserved scallion greens, cilantro and toasted sesame seeds. Serve the remaining hot marinade in a pitcher on the side.
- To make ahead: This makes a great kit meal. Put the chicken in a large resealable freezer bag. Make the marinade and pour one-third over the chicken, seal the bag and coat. Save the remaining marinade in a mason jar and seal. Put the cooled rinsed noodles in a resealable freezer bag. Put the sliced peppers in a resealable freezer bag. Put the sesame seeds and scallions in tiny disposable containers with lids. Put the cilantro in a small resealable freezer bag. Put everything on a sheet pan and store in the fridge.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. This is especially true for the vegetables.
- Don't overcook the noodles: Soba noodles should be cooked until they are just tender, but not mushy. Overcooked noodles will become gummy and unpleasant to eat.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers, but you can use any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include snap peas, snow peas, and bok choy.
- Make sure the chicken is cooked through: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Serve the dish immediately: Sesame soba noodles are best served immediately after they are cooked. The noodles will start to become gummy if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
Sesame soba noodles with chicken thighs and vegetables is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. The soba noodles are light and refreshing, while the chicken thighs and vegetables add protein and flavor. The sesame sauce is the perfect finishing touch, adding a nutty and savory flavor to the dish. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
