What Is Chicken with Prawn Yaki Udon?

Chicken with Prawn Yaki Udon is part of Wagamama’s “yaki” range, a group of dishes built around thick, chewy udon noodles that are stir-fried in a hot wok rather than served in broth. The noodles are tossed together with strips of chicken, prawns, and a mix of fresh vegetables, then coated in a savoury sauce that clings to every strand. It’s designed as a complete, filling meal in a single bowl rather than a starter or side.

Taste, Texture and What to Expect

The appeal of this dish comes from contrast: soft, slippery udon noodles against tender pieces of chicken and the firmer bite of prawns, with vegetables adding crunch. The sauce is typically savoury and slightly sweet, built on soy and umami flavours rather than heavy spice, so it tends to suit diners who prefer comforting flavours over very hot dishes. Expect a warm, satisfying plate that eats more like a stir-fry than a soup.

Typical Ingredients

  • Thick udon noodles
  • Chicken breast or thigh, sliced
  • Prawns
  • Mixed vegetables such as peppers, beansprouts and spring onion
  • Garlic and ginger
  • A soy-based stir-fry sauce

Exact ingredients, preparation methods and portion sizes can change between restaurant updates, so the allergen and nutrition information above should always be treated as the most reliable guide for this specific dish.

Is It a Good Choice for You?

This dish works well if you enjoy combining meat and seafood in one meal, want something filling without ordering extra sides, and prefer milder, savoury flavours over spicy sauces. It is not a suitable choice for anyone with a shellfish or gluten allergy, given the prawns and wheat-based noodles involved — check the allergen notice above and confirm directly with the restaurant if you have a serious allergy.

Price and Availability

As with most Wagamama dishes, pricing for Chicken with Prawn Yaki Udon can vary depending on the restaurant location, delivery platform, and any seasonal menu changes. Always check the current price on your local menu, the Wagamama app, or your chosen delivery service before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it contain shellfish?

Yes. Prawns are a core ingredient, and crustaceans are listed in the allergen information above.

Is Chicken with Prawn Yaki Udon spicy?

No, it’s generally a mild, savoury dish rather than a spicy one. If you want more heat, ask staff about spicier alternatives on the menu.

Can I order it without prawns?

Availability of substitutions depends on the individual restaurant. It’s best to ask a member of staff, or consider a chicken-only or vegetarian yaki noodle option instead.

What does “yaki” mean?

“Yaki” is a Japanese term generally referring to grilling or stir-frying. On Wagamama’s menu, it identifies stir-fried noodle dishes like this one, as opposed to ramen-style soups.

How We Worked Out These Nutrition Numbers

We take the calorie, protein, carb and fat figures on this page directly from Wagamama’s own published nutritional information, rather than estimating them ourselves. For this dish, that’s 728 kcal, 40.3g of protein, 78.6g of carbs (including 8.6g of sugars) and 25.6g of fat per serving, worked out from a per-100g breakdown of 121 kcal, 6.7g protein, 13.0g carbs and 4.2g fat. Portion sizes and recipes can be tweaked from branch to branch, so treat these as a close guide rather than an exact match for what lands on your table.

Is this a healthy choice?

At 728 kcal a serving, it sits on the heavier side of Wagamama’s noodle dishes, largely down to the stir-fried udon noodles and sauce rather than the chicken and prawns themselves. The 40.3g of protein is a solid amount for one meal, and if you’re watching calories, sharing a portion or pairing it with a lighter side rather than an extra dish is an easy way to bring the overall total down. If you’d rather keep the meal lighter, ordering a smaller side instead of an extra small plate, or leaving half the sauce, are simple ways to cut back without missing out on the dish itself.

How often is this page updated?

We review this page periodically and update the nutrition figures whenever Wagamama publishes a new allergen or nutrition PDF, so the numbers above should reflect what’s currently listed on the official site. If you spot a mismatch with your local menu, that’s usually down to a recent recipe tweak rather than an error on our part, since the restaurant’s own information always takes priority over anything shown here.
