How to Make Chicken Lo Mein. Cook the Lo Mein noodles according to package instructions, but pre-al dente. Next, you make the sauce by stir-frying garlic with some oil, then add in the chicken, Napa cabbage, mushroom, carrots and chicken broth. Cooking a large batch of lo mein in a wok or over crowding the wok will result in steaming the ingredients rather than stir frying.
Steps to make Chicken Lo Mein:
- In a medium bowl wisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, and minced garlic. Add sliced chicken. Stir to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in fridge for 1 hr.
- Heat a wok or large deep sided skillet over medium high heat until very hot. Add 2 tbs oil.
- When oil "shimmers" add onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Stir fry until al dente. About 4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Set aside.
- Increase heat to high. Add 1 tbs oil to wok/skillet. As soon as it "shimmers" add chicken along with all the marinade.
- Stir fry until chicken is cooked through and marinade has reduced some. About another 5 minutes. Return veggies to wok/skillet. Stir to heat through and coat with sauce.
- Reduce heat to medium. Wisk together chicken broth and cornstarch. Stir into chicken and veggies. Simmer until sauce thickens. About 2-5 minutes more.
- Add cold noodles. Toss to coat. Cook until noodles are just heated through. Stir in green onions.
- If desired drizzle with sesame oil and stir to combine. Garnish with additional green onions when serving. Enjoy!
