Ingredients

Scale

8 oz lo mein noodles or spaghetti

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced

1 cup julienned carrots

1 cup green peas (fresh or frozen)

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)

1 teaspoon brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

1. Cook noodles according to package directions, drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.

2. Heat sesame oil and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Add sliced chicken breast and cook for 5–6 minutes until fully cooked.

4. Add garlic and ginger, stir for 1 minute, then add carrots and peas. Cook for 3–4 minutes.

5. Stir in soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and pepper. Mix to combine.

6. Add noodles and toss everything together until heated through.

Use tamari for a gluten-free version.

Frozen peas can be used straight from the freezer.

Add chili oil or red pepper flakes if you prefer it spicy.

Do not overcook the vegetables—they should remain crisp-tender.
