Cook Time

The cook time is approximately 20 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 (8-ounce) package dried rice noodles
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Large skillet or wok
  • Colander
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the rice noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender but still firm. Drain the noodles in a colander and rinse them with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until it is browned on all sides and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
  3. Add the red bell pepper and onion to the same skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until they are slightly softened. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for another minute.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes.
  5. Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce over the top and stir everything together until it is well combined.
  6. Add the cooked rice noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until the noodles are coated in sauce and heated through.
  7. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot.

Notes

  • You can use any vegetables you like in this dish, such as broccoli, carrots, or snow peas.
  • If you like your lo mein spicy, add more red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
  • You can also make this dish with shrimp or beef instead of chicken.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure to cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions, as overcooked noodles can become mushy and unappetizing.
  • Cut the chicken into small, bite-sized pieces so that it cooks evenly.
  • Don't skip the step of rinsing the noodles in cold water, as this helps to remove excess starch and prevents them from sticking together.
  • For a vegetarian version of this dish, omit the chicken and add more vegetables instead.
