Notes
- Use rice noodles for a gluten free option.
- Use green beans instead of snow peas.
- Use shredded carrots for quick prep.
- Use a medium white onion, thinly sliced, instead of green onions.
- Use ginger paste found in the produce section of most stores instead of fresh.
- Be sure not to overcook the noodles when boiling. They will cook more when added to the sauce
- Lo Mein is quick cooking so be sure to have all the ingredients chopped, sliced, and measured before you start cooking.
- Marinate the chicken for up to an hour for more flavor.
