- 1 tsp garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium if preferred)
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce

- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/2 cup chicken broth or water

- Cook the lo mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- If you’d like, toss the noodles with a small amount of sesame oil to prevent sticking and add extra flavor.

- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if needed, then add the bell pepper, snow peas, carrots, mushrooms, garlic, and ginger.
- Sauté the vegetables for 3-5 minutes, until they are crisp-tender.
- Add the cooked chicken and noodles back to the skillet with the vegetables.
- Pour the prepared sauce over everything and toss to coat evenly.
- Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and everything to heat through.
- Top the Chicken Lo Mein with green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
- Serve hot and enjoy this flavorful, homemade dish.
- Use Fresh Ginger and Garlic: Freshly minced garlic and ginger add depth to the flavor.
- Don’t Overcook the Vegetables: Keep the vegetables slightly crisp for the best texture.
- Customize Your Vegetables: Feel free to add broccoli, bok choy, or any other vegetables you enjoy.
