  • 3 tablespoons Soy Sauce divided
  • 1 tablespoon Rice Wine or Dry Sherry
  • 1 tablespoon Dark Sesame Oil
  • 4 tablespoons Peanut Oil divided
  • 2 Baby Bok Choy sliced into 1-inch strips
  • 2 cloves Garlic finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger

  • 10 dried Shittake Mushrooms rehydrated, drained and thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons Oyster Sauce

Instructions

  • Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain in a colander in the sink and rinse under cold running water. Shake the colander to drain off excess water and pat the noodles dry with a towel.
  • In a medium bowl, combine 2 teaspoons soy sauce, rice wine or sherry and sesame oil. Mix well.
  • Slice the chicken into fine, 2-inch shreds. Add to soy sauce mixture. Set aside to marinate for about 10 minutes.
  • Heat 1/2 of the peanut oil in a wok or large frying pan over a high heat.
  • When oil is very hot, but not smoking, add the chicken mixture. Stir-fry for about 2 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate, and keep warm.
  • Wipe the wok clean with a paper towel.
  • Add remaining peanut oil and heat.
  • Add bok choy, garlic, ginger, carrots, snow peas, bean sprouts, ham and mushrooms. Stir-fry for another minute or so.
  • Add in the noodles, oyster sauce, scallions and remaining soy sauce, to taste. Continue to stir-fry until the noodles are heated through.
  • Taste. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Add chicken and any juices to the noodle mixture. Bring to a boil, and stir to coat the chow mein mixture.
  • Transfer mixture to a serving bowl or plate and sprinkle with chow mein noodles.
  • Serve hot.
