The Chile forward raced onto Romelu Lukaku's pass before rounding Petr Cech then sliding the ball into the net from a tight angle on 31 minutes at the Emirates.
It was a superb finish from the former Arsenal favourite, who departed the London club for United after four years in a swap deal with Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
It was Sanchez's first goal since he scored against Newcastle on October 6 in a 3-2 win in the Premier League.
