Chow Mein
I want to say that Chow Mein is my
favourite noodle-child but I’m
worried that I’ve said that in another
recipe (or two… or three… ).

Difference
between Lo Mein
and Chow Mein
The difference lies in the
noodles. Both are wheat
noodles made with egg so
they are yellow(ish). Lo Mein
Noodles are wet and oily out
of the packet, then boiled or
soaked until soft before
tossing with a sauce,
vegetables and protein.

Recipe Notes:
1. Chicken - I prefer making this with
thigh because it's juicier, but it can be
made with breast or tenderloin. If using
breast, option to tenderise using the
Chinese method so it's super tender
and juicy like you get at Chinese
restaurants - see How to tenderise
chicken the Chinese way (Velveting)
