Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Noodles

    Boil water in a large pot. Add chow mein noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Beef

    In a bowl, combine sliced beef, soy sauce, cornstarch, and sesame oil. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Stir-fry the Beef

    Heat a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil, then add the marinated beef. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the beef is browned and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  2. 4

    Cook the Vegetables

    In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed. Add garlic and ginger, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add bell pepper, carrot, and green onions. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  3. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked beef back into the pan with the vegetables. Then, add the bean sprouts, oyster sauce, chicken broth, and sugar. Stir well to combine all ingredients and heat through for about 2 minutes.

  4. 6

    Add Noodles

    Finally, add the cooked chow mein noodles to the pan. Toss everything together to ensure the noodles are well coated with the sauce and heated through. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Remove from heat and serve immediately while hot. Enjoy your homemade Beef Chow Mein!
