Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 ounces lo mein noodles
- 1 pound boneless, skinless, chicken breasts
- 1-1/2 cups carrots, diagonally sliced
- 1 cup celery, diagonally sliced
- 1 cup onion, sliced
- 1 cup raw mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
Preparation
- Cook lo mein noodles according to package omitting salt. Drain and set aside.
- Thinly slice chicken breasts.
- Heat olive oil in a wok or big, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes or until no longer pink.
- Add onions, carrots and celery. Stir-fry gently until vegetables are cooked but still crunchy, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add mushrooms and noodles, and stir constantly until hot.
- Add soy sauce, stir and serve.
Helpful hints
- Linguine or fettuccine can be used instead of lo mein noodles. The nutrient composition is very similar.
- Replace chicken with thin slices of beef for variety.
- Use leftover grilled chicken or beef from a cookout the day before. In step #3, reduce cooking time to 1 to 2 minutes.
