How to Make Chicken Chow Mein
- Whisk all chow mein sauce ingredients together in a bowl until well combined. Let it sit while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Cook the chow mein noodles according to package directions, usually boiling for about 4-5 minutes until tender. Drain and set them aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the thinly sliced chicken breast. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until it's golden and cooked through, then remove it from the pan.
- Stir-fry the shredded green cabbage and julienned carrots in the same pan for about 2-3 minutes.
- Return the cooked chicken to the wok, then add the drained chow mein noodles. Toss everything together to mix well and coat with the remaining oil in the pan.
- Pour in the prepared sauce, tossing the noodles until they are glossy and evenly coated. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, letting the sauce thicken slightly.
- Add the sliced green onions to the mix. Give it a gentle stir, taste, and season if needed. Serve the Chicken Chow Mein hot.

Notes
For best results, keep your wok hot before adding chicken. Don’t overcook vegetables; they should remain vibrant and slightly tender.
