Description

This Chicken Lo Mein is a quick and flavorful stir-fry dish made with tender chicken, fresh vegetables, and perfectly cooked noodles tossed in a savory soy and sesame sauce.


Ingredients

  • 3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Lo Mein noodles (fresh or dried)
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 yellow bell pepper
  • 2 carrots (thinly sliced)
  • 2 green onions (chopped)
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 3 cloves fresh minced garlic


Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients and chop vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Cook lo mein noodles according to package instructions until al dente; drain and set aside.
  2. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add oil and sauté the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from skillet.

  5. Serve hot with extra soy sauce if desired.
