Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I boil a large pot of salted water and cook the lo mein noodles according to the package instructions. This typically takes about 5-7 minutes. Once they’re cooked to perfection, I drain them and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking. While the noodles are cooking, I heat my wok over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Next, I toss in my sliced chicken and stir-fry it until it’s golden brown and cooked through, which usually takes about 5 minutes. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
