Chicken Chow Mein
You'll Need:
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs diced and marinated in:
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons mirin
2 crushed garlic cloves
1 tsp grated ginger
Shake up some stir fry sauce:
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons mirin
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
8 tablespoons chicken broth
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 1/2 teaspoon grated garlic
1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoon corn starch
Chop up some veggies:
3 cups shredded cabbage
1 cup celery
4 green onions
1 1/2 cup bean sprouts
1 cup shredded carrots
Cook one 8 oz package of Chinese Noodles according to package directions and then rinse. Set aside. (I like KA-ME Chinese Noodles. They have a great texture and absorb the flavor of the sauce well!)
Heat wok over medium high heat and fry chicken thighs in 1 tablespoon butter. When cooked through, remove from wok and set aside.
Pour in vegetables and 1/4 stir fry sauce. Cook in wok about 3 minutes and add noodles, chicken, and remainder of sauce. Stir well, and cook about 3 minutes more. And that's it! Better than takeout, life changing Chicken Chow Mein.
Note: These days, I do like my food with a little heat, so while I don't add any to this dish in cooking, I do like to top with a few drops of chili oil. It doesn't change the integrity in flavor of the dish but it does add a nice kick! Give it a try!
