Chicken Chow Mein

Chow mein can be described as a popular Chinese dish that is made of egg noodles and stir-fried vegetables. We love the addition of protein, and our favourite is chicken, however you can choose other meats or tofu. Chow mein is cooked in a pan so that the noodles have crisp and crispy and then covered in an amazing sauce. Chow mein is a great option for nights when you don’t want to clean several pans or make big mess in your kitchen.

Chow mein gets its distinctive taste from the rich dark, dark homemade sauce that the noodles are served with. It’s the perfect blend of salty and sweet that makes dropping chopsticks a nightmare.
