CHICKEN CHOW MEIN

INGREDIENTS

1 10-ounce (285g) package of fresh egg noodles (dried egg noodles work too)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound (450g) chicken breast, chopped
1/2 medium yellow onion, sliced
3 large carrots, peeled and sliced
1 large red pepper, seeded and sliced
8 ounces (225g) Chinese broccoli (gai lan), roughly chopped
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 green onion, roughly chopped
salt

INSTRUCTIONS

In a small pot, bring about a quart of water to boil. Once the water boils, drop in the noodles and cook for 7 to 8 minutes. Drain the water and rinse the noodles under cold water.

Heat a saute pan with 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil. Saute the chicken breasts until they are fully cooked (about 6 to 8 minutes). Season with a tiny pinch of salt, and turn off the heat.

In a large saute pan or wok, heat the remaining oil. Once the pan is hot, add the onions, and let it cook for about 2 minutes.

Add the carrots, pepper, and Chinese broccoli, and cook the vegetables for about 5 minutes, until fully cooked. Add the cooked noodles and chicken, and stir everything together. I find it easiest to use two spatulas and mix everything like you are tossing a salad.

Add the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and green onion, and mix again. Turn off the heat.
Serve immediately.
