Step one

Pat chicken dry with paper towel. Season with salt; toss with cornstarch until well coated. Lay chicken on baking sheet; refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Step two

Pour enough oil into wok or large saucepan set over medium-high heat to come 1/2-inch (1 cm) up side. Shake off excess cornstarch from chicken. Cook chicken for 3 to 5 minutes or until browned and cooked through; transfer to paper towel–lined plate.
Step three

Increase heat to high; cook mushrooms, onion, carrots, peas, garlic and ginger for 3 to 5 minutes or until slightly softened. Stir in VH® Mango Chili Sauce and vinegar; bring to boil. Boil for 3 to 5 minutes or until sauce is slightly reduced.
Step four

Serve vegetables over noodles; top with crispy chicken. Garnish with mango, (if using). Sprinkle with cilantro.
