A quick and flavorful Chicken Lo Mein recipe perfect for easy weeknight meals. Tender chicken breast combined with crisp bell peppers, carrots, and green onions, tossed with lo mein noodles in a savory soy and sesame sauce for a delicious and satisfying dish.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Vegetables

  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 carrots, thinly sliced
  • 2 green onions, chopped

Noodles & Sauce

  • Lo Mein noodles (fresh or dried) – about 8 oz
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients and chop the vegetables into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
  2. Cook Noodles: Cook the lo mein noodles according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside to prevent overcooking.
  3. Cook Chicken: Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add a small amount of oil. Sauté the chicken breasts until golden brown and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes, then remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Cook Vegetables: In the same pan, stir-fry the sliced bell peppers, carrots, and chopped green onions until they are tender but still crisp, about 3-4 minutes, to maintain their texture and flavor.
  5. Combine and Toss: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Add the cooked lo mein noodles, low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, and minced garlic. Toss everything together thoroughly to evenly coat the noodles and ingredients with the sauce.
  6. Serve: Serve the chicken lo mein hot, optionally with extra soy sauce on the side for additional flavoring.

Notes

  • You can use chicken thighs instead of breasts for a juicier result.
  • Add other vegetables like snap peas or mushrooms to increase the variety and nutrition.
  • For extra heat, include a splash of chili garlic sauce or red pepper flakes.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Make sure not to overcook the noodles to avoid mushy texture.
