Stir fry udon with chicken and scallop

Today I made Stir fry japanese udon with chicken and scallop. This  recipe is where Japanese meet Chinese,  it actually mixes both Japanese and Chinese ingredients/sauces in the cooking. When you see the ingredients below you might think this recipe is too troublesome as you need to prepare so many stuffs, actually you can always add/opt out some of the ingredients I used.

When I cook, I tend to add a lot of ingredients and sometimes I just add them to clear the stuffs in my fridge. Trust me, this is a really simple and satisfying dish.

The measurement of this recipe is just an approximation and my measurement is enough to serve 3-4 people, so please do your own multiplication accordingly.
