How To Make chicken lo mein

  • 1
    Cook noodles, drain, toss with a few drops of sesame oil (if you like sesame oil) or other oil. Set aside. In a small bowl, whisk the oyster sauce, soy sauce, chicken stock, dried minced onion, cornstarch, and red pepper flakes until smooth; set aside.
  • 2
    Heat the oil in a large skillet (I use a nonstick pan) over high heat. Stir fry the chicken for 3-4 minutes, until almost cooked through and add the ginger, garlic, and broccoli. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently. BE SURE TO NOT OVERCOOK CHICKEN.
  • 3
    Whisk the sauce and add it to the pan, letting it boil for 1 minute to thicken before adding to the noodles. Toss to coat and serve.
