Ingredients
  

Main
  • 8 oz lo mein noodles
  • 1 lb chicken breast thinly sliced
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables bell peppers, carrots, broccoli
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp ginger minced
  • 2 green onions chopped (for garnish)

Equipment

  • Large pot for boiling noodles
  • Wok or large skillet

Method
 

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the lo mein noodles and cook for 3-4 minutes until al dente, then drain.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Add mixed vegetables to the wok and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
  4. Stir in minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Add the drained noodles to the wok and toss to combine with chicken and vegetables.
  6. Pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Stir well to coat all ingredients and cook for 1-2 minutes to heat through.
  7. Remove from heat and transfer to serving plates. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra flavor, let the noodles sit in the sauce for a minute before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
