Easy Chicken Lo Mein

"If you’re following along over on Instagram, you’ll know that I have a serious obsession with stir-fried noodles and steamed dumplings. They are my culinary duo of choice and my most frequent craving. And 99 times out of 100, I’m satisfying that craving at Din Tai Fung (DTF), a popular eatery with international locations that has amassed a cult-like following for their fresh dim sum. While I’m a big fan of Din Tai Fung’s world-renown soup dumplings (a.k.a. xiao long bao), the chicken stir-fried noodles are an often overlooked menu item that I’m determined to bring out from behind the dumpling shadow. The noodles are big on flavor without the side of grease and guilt the typical Chinese takeout comes with. Just noodles, chicken and spinach cooked in a garlicky soy sauce. It’s simple, straightforward and seriously fresh. So how does one cook up an equivalent dish and avoid the 2+ hours of lines and travel that a trip to Din Tai Fung entails? Fear not! I’ve done all the research so you don’t have to. With a super-short ingredient list, and an even faster method of preparation, this Easy Chicken Lo Mein is guaranteed to become a staple on your busy weeknight menu. After creating this recipe, I shared it with my sister, who is Supermom to three beautiful girls age 3 or younger, and they slurped these noodles right up. This dish has also been on repeat at our house, as it’s quickly surpassed vodka pasta as my husband’s noodle dish of choice. So taste buds young and old alike have determined that this chicken lo mein is a major dinner winner. Ready to toss the takeout menus?
