Soba with Sesame Sauce

I love soba and when I saw Ann's post on this I thought it was easy for a quick meal.  It smells very fragrant with the sesame sauce. 

Recipe reference from Ann

200g Soba (buckwheat noodles)

2 pcs Chicken thigh meat (debonded and skinned)
some chye sim (菜心) or Spinach (波菜)
some toasted white sesame seeds
Sesame mixed sauce
1 tbsp minced ginger
4 tbsp Sesame/Tahini paste
2 tbsp Sesame oil
6 tbsp Kikkomann light soy sauce
2 tsp Sugar
4 tbsp Water

Method:

·    Remove skin and fat from chicken, mix thoroughly with 1/2 tsp salt and crushed black pepper, leave aside for 10 minutes (put in the fridge). Pan fry chicken thigh with little oil till golden brown. Leave to cool and cut into small pieces.

·    Wash the chye sim or spinach and blanch in boiling water, then run cold water through it and drain. Cut into sections.
