  • Rinse scallions, trim and cut into thin, diagonal slices. 
  • Rinse the sprout mix under cold water and drain well.  
  • Toss scallions and sprout mix with the noodles. Season with soy sauce, pepper and orange juice to taste. Let stand for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toast sesame seeds in a dry skillet and let cool. Using a mortar, crush sesame seeds with a little salt.   
  • Rinse chicken breast, pat dry and place in a lightly oiled steamer basket. Steam over medium heat until juices run clear, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from steamer and cut into slices. Place the soba noodles on plates, top with the chicken and sprinkle with sesame salt.
