Servings: 4 servings
Equipment
- Large pot
- Non-stick Frying pan
Ingredients
- 12 oz Chinese Lo Mein or Chow Mein noodles or spaghetti
- 1 lb skinless boneless chicken breast cut into small pieces
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 lb vegetables chopped (I used asparagus)
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 lime
- 1/4 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Cook the Lo Mein noodles according to package directions (they usually cook really quickly – about 3 minutes). Drain the noodles.
- Heat 1/2 tbsp oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the frying pan into a bowl.
- Pour another 1/2 tbsp of oil into a frying pan and heat over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion and chopped vegetables. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until vegetables are cook, but still crisp. Remove the vegetables from the frying pan and add to the bowl with chicken.
- Pour 2 tbsp of soy sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle with pepper. Mix everything so the chicken and vegetables are coated with soy sauce.
- Put 2 tbsp of oil in a big pot (that was used for cooking the noodles). Add minced garlic and heat the pot over medium-high heat. When the garlic starts to sizzle, add the cooked lo mein noodles to the pot. Quickly mix so the noodles are coated with garlic oil. Add 1 tbsp of soy sauce and squeeze the juice out of the lime onto noodles. Mix thoroughly.
- Add chicken and vegetables to the lo mein noodles. Mix everything well and cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes, or until everything is evenly heated through.
