Chicken Chow Mein
These are my favorite noodles, not just because they are so delicious, but also because of all the hidden vegetables. Chow Mein can be made with either fresh or fried noodles. If you can’t find chow mein noodles, you can use thin spaghetti noodles. Make sure your ingredients are ready and the sauce is mixed before you start cooking. The main cooking happens very quickly.

INGREDIENTS

Step one Vegetables
2 cups | cabbage
one | capsicum
half | red onion
one | carrot
four | green spring onions
2 tbs | crushed garlic

700 gm | boneless chicken breast

METHOD
Cut the vegetables
Slice the chicken and marinate it for at least 20 minutesI have used chicken breast meat, boneless thigh meat can also be used
Get the sauce ready
Deep fry the chicken in vegetable oil
Boil the noodles according to the packet instructions I used Wan Hua fresh chow Mein noodlesany dry noodles can also be used, tossing cooked noodles with oil will prevent them from sticking together and clumping, however I did not need to do this step with fresh noodles
Heat the wok until it starts smoking this makes the surface of the wok nonstick
Add oil, swirl the oil around so it covers the surface area of the wok, then remove the extra oil
Add the vegetables
Add garlic make sure to add garlic after the vegetables and not directly to the oil for a better garlic aroma and flavor
Stir fry for a minute
Add the fried chicken
Keep the flame at its highest throughout the cooking process
Now add the noodles
Keep stir frying at high heat
Pour in the prepared sauce
Stir fry for just a few minutes
Enjoy!
