Ingredients
– 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast
– 3 tablespoons olive oil
– 12 oz uncooked chow mein noodles
– 2 cups cabbage
– 1 large carrot, julienned
– Half a bunch of green onions
– 2 garlic cloves
– 4 tablespoons oyster sauce (adjust to taste)
– 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
– 3 tablespoons light sesame oil (not toasted)
– Half a cup soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon chicken broth
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
1-First, prepare all ingredients by slicing the chicken breast into bite-sized strips, julienning the carrot, and chopping the cabbage and garlic. Cook the noodles according to package instructions, then drain and rinse with cold water to keep them from sticking.
2-Next, heat the olive oil in a large wok or pan over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken and cook until itβs golden brown and fully done, which takes about 5-7 minutes. Once ready, remove the chicken and set it aside to keep it tender.
3-Then, in the same pan, sautΓ© the carrots, cabbage, and garlic for a few minutes until the vegetables soften slightly and the cabbage turns translucent. This step brings out their natural sweetness and adds crunch to the dish.
4-After that, return the cooked chicken and noodles to the pan. Pour in the prepared sauce and toss everything together for about 2 minutes to ensure the flavors meld perfectly.

5-Finally, garnish with chopped green onions and serve the dish while itβs hot for the best taste. Remember to taste and adjust seasoning as needed for your preferences.
