A simple chicken lo mein recipe that recreates a takeout favorite with tender noodles, chicken, and vegetables in a savory sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 8 ounces lo mein noodles
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup snow peas
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 green onions, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, toss chicken pieces with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 teaspoon cornstarch. Set aside.
  2. Cook lo mein noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and chicken broth. Set aside.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken and stir-fry until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  5. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add garlic and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  6. Add broccoli florets, red bell pepper, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry until vegetables are tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes.
  7. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the cooked noodles and the prepared sauce. Toss everything together until well combined and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
  8. Stir in chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic and ginger.
  • You can substitute other vegetables like carrots, mushrooms, or bok choy.
  • Ensure your wok or skillet is hot before adding ingredients for best stir-fry results.
