Instructions
- Cook the noodles according to package directions, then drain and set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients.
- Preheat a large frying pan over medium heat and drizzle with the oil.
- Add the chicken and season to taste. Cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and almost cooked through.
- Stir in the bell peppers and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through. Add the spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until just wilted.
- Remove from the heat and toss with the hot cooked noodles and the sauce. Garnish with sesame seeds.
Notes
- Switch out the protein: I used chicken breasts because I prefer lean protein, however, boneless skinless chicken thighs, thinly sliced flank steak, shrimp, or diced turkey breasts are all perfect for this recipe too!
- Try different vegetables: There is a whole variety of vegetables you can add to Chicken Lo Mein. Check out my list below for more ideas!
- Add a little more heat: I sometimes like to dice up one chili pepper and toss it in there as well for a little extra spice!
