Chow mein Noodles

4/15/2019

3 Comments

 
The trip to your local Chinese grocery store is so worth it for these chow mein noodles. You could try to skimp and use spaghetti - but it won't be the same!

Growing up I used to pound my Grandma's cabbage and noodles which consisted of butter, onion, cabbage and egg noodles. This dish is inspired by that but it also has some Asian influence!

Also, yes I am allergic to sesame seeds, but the person I was cooking dinner for isn't so I put them on her dish! :)
Picture
What you need:
  • 1 lb chow mein noodles
  • 3 tbsp regular or vegan butter
  • 1/2 head of cabbage, finely shaved
  • 3 minced garlic cloves
  • 1 tsp minced ginger
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional)
What to do:
  1. Add the butter to a large wok or non-stick skillet and cook the shaved cabbage, garlic and ginger on medium heat until it wilts and is very tender. (About 10 minutes.)
  2. While cooking the cabbage, bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the noodles according to package instructions.
  3. Add the cooked noodles, soy sauce and vinegar to the cooking cabbage and combine everything while continuing to cook on medium for 5-7 more minutes. 
  4. Top with sesame seeds and serve hot!

If i wanted to add chicken how would you recommend cooking and marinating it?

Hi Halle! I would slice chicken breast into really thin slices and marinate it in soy sauce. Maybe toss it in a little cornstarch before cooking to really absorb that soy sauce flavor!

Could you link to a brand or type of noodle you used from the Asian market. There are so many variations in the market, including pre-cooked and raw.
