Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 200 g rice noodles
- 1 chicken breast, sliced
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, cabbage, bell peppers)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Green onions for garnish
Sauces and Oils
- 2 tbsp oil (vegetable or canola oil recommended)
- 3 tbsp gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 tbsp gluten-free oyster sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp sugar
Instructions
- Prepare Rice Noodles: Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions until tender, then drain and set aside to prevent sticking.
- Cook Chicken: Heat oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken breast and cook thoroughly until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
- Sauté Garlic and Vegetables: Add the minced garlic to the pan and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add the mixed vegetables and continue stir-frying for 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
- Add Noodles: Incorporate the drained rice noodles into the pan with the chicken and vegetables, mixing well to combine.
- Season the Dish: Stir in the gluten-free soy sauce, gluten-free oyster sauce, sesame oil, and sugar. Toss everything together thoroughly so the noodles and ingredients are evenly coated with the sauce.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish the lo mein with chopped green onions, and serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Always check labels to ensure the soy sauce and oyster sauce are certified gluten-free to avoid cross-contamination.
- For added texture and nutrition, consider adding mushrooms or broccoli to the vegetable mix.
- Adjust seasoning such as soy sauce and sugar according to your taste preferences for saltiness and sweetness.
