Ingredients
To get this party started, you’re gonna need the following ingredients:
- 8 ounces of lo mein noodles
- 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
- 2 cups of mixed vegetables (carrots, bell peppers, and broccoli)
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon of ginger, minced
- 2 green onions, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: Cooked protein of your choice (like chicken, shrimp, or tofu)
Instructions
Alright, let’s bust this out step by step:
- First things first, bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Toss in those lo mein noodles and cook according to the package instructions until they are nice and tender. Once done, drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set that aside.
- In a large skillet or wok, heat up some oil over medium-high heat. Throw in the minced garlic and ginger and sauté until they’re fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Now, add in those mixed vegetables and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they’re vibrant and tender-crisp. If you’re adding a protein, toss it in now and cook until heated through.
- Next, add your cooked noodles into the skillet. Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Stir everything together until the noodles are coated with that beautiful sauce. Get in there and mix it up!
- Finally, sprinkle chopped green onions on top and season with salt and pepper to taste. Give it one last stir, and bam! You’re ready to serve it up!
