Chicken Chow Mein


Chicken Chow Mein is a Chinese stir fry noodles recipe. It is made with flavorful combination of soy sauce, vinegar and chili sauce. 

A very easy recipe and suits when you just need your mouth to sizzle. The base for this recipe is noodles and different sauces. I used angel hair pasta, but you can prepare it with any kinds of noodles.

Also toss it up with fresh vegetables like carrots, broccoli, onions, bell pepper and a little bit of protein like boneless chicken strips. 

Ingredients

1 pack Angel hair pasta
200 gms Boneless Chicken strips
1 Carrot, thinly sliced
1 Bell pepper, cut into strips
1 onion, sliced lengthwise
Handful of Broccoli florets

1/2 tsp Pepper
6 tsp Oil

For the sauce
1 cup Chicken broth
4 tsp dark Soy sauce
3 tsp Sriracha sauce or hot sauce
4 tsp Rice vinegar
1/2 tsp Aginomotto

  • Spread the chicken on a preheated wok. Sprinkle little vegetable oil and season it with salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat until it is tender. Keep it aside

  • Heat remaining oil and on high heat toss in vegetables for 2 min. Give it a little stir
