Chicken Chow Mein

 

 

 



Serves:4 people      
1/2 Syn per person
1 hour (cooking and marinating time)

Ingredients

2 x Skinless chicken breasts - diced (P)
Dried Noodles (I use one nest per person)
4 tbsp. light soy sauce
4 tbsp. dark soy sauce
1 tbsp. hot chilli sauce
1 tbsp. sweet chilli sauce
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. Chinese 5 spice
1 tsp. lazy garlic
1 red pepper (S)
1 green pepper (S)
1 tin bamboo shoots (S)
2 chilli peppers (I deseed) (S)
half a packet of sugar snap peas (S)
4 spring onions (S)
2 eggs (P)
Fry Light

Method

In a bowl, marinate the chicken in the light soy sauce, hot chilli sauce, ginger, Chinese 5 spice and the garlic. Marinate for about 10/30 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook the noodles (usually take between 5/10 minutes) drain and keep to one side.

Spray a wok with Fry Light and cook the chicken. Once the chicken is cooked, add the vegetables.

Once the vegetables have been cooked, add the dark soy sauce and the sweet chilli sauce.

Add the cooked noodles in and mix all together to coat the noodles in the sauce and distribute the chicken and the vegetables.

Plate up in large bowls and serve with a fried egg on top.

Delicious!

I cook this for Matt and I as it is so quick and easy. You can marinate the chicken over night if you wanted to. I genuinely prefer this over the version we used to get from the takeaway. This dish is so versatile as you can use any vegetables you like or try it with beef or pork!

TIP! This dish is great for dinner parties as everything bar the noodles can be prepared in advance so you spend less time cooking and more time living!
