Ingredients
3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
8 oz lo mein noodles (fresh or dried)
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
2 carrots, thinly sliced
2 green onions, chopped
¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp rice vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Cook lo mein noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and toss with sesame oil to prevent sticking.
2. Slice chicken and vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
3. Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
4. Add chicken and cook for 6–8 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
5. Stir-fry bell peppers, carrots, and green onions for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp.
6. Return chicken to the pan. Add noodles, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and rice vinegar.
7. Toss everything together until evenly coated.
8. Serve hot, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
Marinate chicken in soy sauce and garlic for extra flavor.
Add broccoli, snap peas, or mushrooms for variety.
Use tofu or shrimp instead of chicken for a twist.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
