How To Make easy peasy chicken chow mein
-
Step 1Cut 1/2 head of cabbage and onions in thin strips.
-
Step 2Cut chicken breast in half crosswise and then cut into thin strips about 1 1/2 -2 inch long
-
Step 3Mix corn starch with chicken broth
-
Step 4Heat oil in wok add garlic and chicken season with ginger and sliced onions cook until chicken is done
-
Step 5If using a skillet not a wok you will have to pour chicken into a bowl to re add after cooking cabbage down. If wok. Add cabbage to chicken and 1 cup of water stirring from bottom. Once cabbage has cooked down to 1/2 of precooked size re add chicken if in skillet
-
Step 6Add soy sauce and the corn starch stock mixture ...stir often.. if the liquid is to sparse add a bit more water you can make it as saucy as you like. The cabbage will add a bit of fluid so I wait until its cooked down before adding if needed. Usually you won't need more than 2 cups of water total.
-
Step 7Cook until sauce has thickend and cabbage is desired crispness. We like ours pretty done through.
-
Step 8Serve with rice or chow mien noodles.
