Description

A fast and flavorful 20-minute weeknight dinner featuring tender chicken, fresh vegetables, and savory egg noodles in a rich soy-based sauce.


Ingredients

Scale

8 oz Lo Mein noodles (or egg noodles)
1 lb chicken breast, thinly sliced
2 cups shredded cabbage
1 large carrot, julienned
1 cup snap peas
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp vegetable oil
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce

Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and sesame oil.
