Chicken Chow Mein

Chicken Chow Mein






Ingredients:

 12 ounces Chinese noodles (I use the fresh ones found in the produce department)
8 ounces boneless chicken breasts, sliced thinly (freezing for about 20 minutes make this task easier)
3 tablespoons soy sauce, divided
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 ounces snow peas, trimmed
2 ounces ham, finely sliced
1 1/2-2 tablespoons oyster sauce
4 green onions, finely chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

1*You'llwant to get your prep work done first, because this will cook up very quickly.

2*Cook noodles according to package directions.

3*Rinse under cold water, and set aside.

4*After you slice the chicken, place it in a bowl with 2 tsp of soy sauce, the rice vinegar and sesame oil.

5*Toss to coat.

6*Heat half the olive oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat.

7*When the oil is nice and hot, add the chicken mixture.

8*Stir fry for 2 minutes, then transfer the chicken to a plate and keep warm.

9*Wipe the pan out and heat the remaining olive oil.

10*Stir in the garlic, snow peas, and ham.

11*Stir fry for 2-3 minutes.

12*Add the drained noodles to the pan, and continue to stir fry till the noodles are heated through,
about 2 minutes.

13*Add the remaining soy, the oyster sauce, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

14*You may find you don't need salt.

15*Add the chicken and any juices back to the pan, then add the green onions.

16*Give a final stir and serve immediately.
