Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, water, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the noodles

    Cook chow mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the chicken

    Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken breast and stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes or until cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Stir-fry the vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic and ginger, sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add bell pepper, carrot, snow peas, and green onions. Stir-fry for about 3-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.

  3. 5

    Combine everything

    Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the prepared sauce over the mixture and stir well to combine. Add the cooked chow mein noodles and toss everything together until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
