Chicken Chow Mein

Again, with this recipe, it appears to be quite dry, but yep, you guessed it... it's far from needing any sauce.

- 200g egg noodles

- 100g left over chicken cut into strips (I just used a bought roasted chicken)

- 3 tablespoons dark soy sauce

- 2 tablespoons sesame oil

- juice of 1 lime

- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil

- 1 teaspoon minced ginger

- 1 clove garlic

- 300g bean sprouts

- 3 shallots, roughly sliced

- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1 teaspoon brown sugar

1. To make the marinade: mix 2 tablespoons of dark soy sauce and 1/2 of the lime juice. Add the chicken and coat thoroughly. 

2. Prepare noodles to packet, rise and set aside. 

3. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan, cook the ginger, garlic, bean sprouts and shallots for 2 minutes and set aside.

4. Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan and cook the chicken. Add the prepared noodles. 

5. Add the remaining soy sauce, lime juice, salt and sugar, then add the vegetables. Stir fry until it's all heated through.
