Chicken Lo Mein

I always never liked spending a ton of money on a dish for a dinner party, but this Chicken Lo Mein doesn't break the bank and always has everyone coming for seconds. It has tender marinated chicken, perfectly chewy noodles, and a super addicting sauce! It's everything you love about takeout but cheaper!

Ingredients

Chicken

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs sliced into thin strips
  • 1 tsp shaoxing wine
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • ¼ tsp salt

Rest of the Dish

  • 6 oz Lo Mein Noodles
  • ½ onion thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 scallions cut into 1-inch pieces (whites and greens separated)
  • ½ cup shredded cabbage
  • ¼ cup shredded carrots

Sauce

Instructions

  • Slice your chicken thighs into thin strips and marinate with shaoxing wine, cornstarch, and salt for 15 minutes.
  • While the chicken marinates, slice the onions, mince the garlic, and cut the scallions into 1-inch pieces, keeping the whites and greens separate. Prepare the shredded cabbage and carrots.
  • In a small bowl, combine dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, shaoxing wine, water, and white pepper. Mix thoroughly to make the sauce.
  • Boil the noodles one minute before al dente, then rinse and drain.
  • Heat oil in a pan and brown the chicken for about 5 minutes, then remove and set aside.
  • In the same pan, add garlic, onions, and scallion whites. Cook for about 2 minutes until fragrant, then add cabbage and carrots, cooking until wilted.
  • Add the noodles, chicken, and sauce. Toss everything together and cook until the sauce thickens slightly. Add the scallion greens and stir until just wilted.
  • Serve the noodles in a bowl.
