Late night Lo Mein!

                                

So I came home from work at 9:30pm Wednesday night with an arm full of grocery and an empty stomach. I fired up my wok and made some quick late night lo mein! A quick, simple, but super flavorful meal, and easy to pack for lunch the next day!

You'll need:
Chicken
Veggies of your choice. I used broccoli, green beans, corn, and water chestnuts
Egg noodles
And for the sauce, Hoisin sauce, soy sauce, chill garlic paste, oyster sauce, and Sriracha.
Chicken broth and corn starch to thicken the sauce.
And sesame oil to cook it all in.

Now you're ready to get cooking!
Coat the chicken in the mixture of the sauces. Let it sit while you chop up your veggies.
In your wok add about a teaspoon of sesame oil, be cautious because sesame oil heats up quickly.
Add your chicken to the wok, but save your sauce.
While the chicken is cooking, mix about half a table spoon of corn starch with chicken broth and add it to the left over sauce that the chicken was marinading in. You can add a bit more of which ever sauce you want. This mixture will go over the noodles at the end.
Once your chicken is done (takes 5-7 mins) add your veggies. The veggies only need a quick sauté so they stay fresh and crispy.
Take this opportunity to put your noodles in your boiling water.
Dont do what I did! I forgot to boil the water before I started on my chicken and veggies, and had to turn the stove off and wait while that came to a boil. Caused my veggies to soften a bit more than I wanted, and also added like 20 mins to my cooking time! Start boiling your water right from the start.
The noodles only take about 4 mins to cook.
Add the noodles to your chicken and veggies.
Mix in the sauce with corn starch.
Toss together
and Wa-Lah!
A quick and simple lo mien!
Enjoy!
