CHOW MEIN

Steps:

• Mix together cornflour and soy sauce, then mix in remaining ingredients.
• Alternative: Use 1/3 cup Chinese All Purpose Stir Fry Sauce, if you have some in stock.
• Marinate Chicken: Pour 1 tbsp of Sauce over the chicken, mix to coat, set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
• Noodles: Prepare the noodles according to the packet instructions (my pack says soak in boiled water for 1 minute), then drain.
• Heat oil in wok or large fry pan over high heat.
• Add garlic and stir fry for 10 seconds or until it starts to turn golden - don't let it burn!
• Add chicken and stir fry until the surface gets a tinge of browning but inside is still raw - about 1 minute.
• Add the cabbage, carrot, and the white pieces of shallots (i.e. from the base of the stalk). Stir fry for 1 1/2 minutes until the cabbage is mostly wilted.
• Add the noodles, Sauce and water*. Stir fry for 1 minute, tossing constantly.
• Add bean sprouts and remaining shallots/scallions. Toss through for 30 seconds or until the bean sprouts just start to wilt.
• Remove from heat and serve immediately.

CHICKEN CHOW MEIN WITH THE BEST CHOW MEIN SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, use a whisk to combine oyster sauce, granulated sugar, sesame oil, soy sauce, chicken broth and cornstarch. Set aside.
• Cook your noodles according to package instructions then drain, rinse with cold water and set aside.
• Heat a large wok or pan with olive oil over medium-heat. Cut your chicken breasts into bite-sized strips and cook them in the oil until golden brown. Remove strips and set aside.
• Add carrots, cabbage and pressed garlic and saute for a few minutes until veggies are slightly softened and the cabbage is a bit translucent.
• Add chicken and noodles back into the pan. Pour sauce over the top and continue cooking all the ingredients together for another 2 minutes.
• Garnish your chow mein with chopped green onions and serve the noodles straight from the pan and piping hot!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cover the noodles with boiling water and let soak 7 minutes or until noodles are soft but still somewhat firm. In a wok or large skillet, heat oil over high heat. When very hot, add cabbage, mushrooms, green onion, onion, carrot, jalapeno and garlic. Stir together, then break egg over mixture and stir quickly so egg coats vegetables. Cook 1 minute, then add chicken and continue stirring and cooking until chicken is done, about 3 minutes. Add curry powder, soy sauce, oyster sauce and sugar; stir well. Drain noodles and add them to the wok. Continue cooking and stirring until everything is well coated. Serve in a large bowl.
