Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
8 oz egg noodle
1 carrot
2 cups bean sprouts (or cabbage)
1-2 cups of pak choi
1 large onion
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 scallions
2 chili pepper (I used bird peppers)
1 1/2 cup sweet pepper (bell – different colors)
1 cup broccoli
1 cup celery
2 small chicken breasts (about 1 lb)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 table spoon vegetable oil (see note below)
For the sauce….
2 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon soya sauce
* 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Directions:
Directions:
Try to cut all the vegetables the same size for uniform cooking and also slice the chicken into very thin slices, wash, dry and get ready to cook.
Heat your wok and add the vegetable oil. Now add the slices of chicken and cook for about 4 minutes. Remember to keep stirring so it cooks evenly. Now turn down the heat and remove the pieces of chicken and set aside. At this time you should also cook your egg noodles, drain and allow to cool.
-Turn the heat back up to med/high and add some oil and the onion, garlic (grated) and grated ginger to the pot. Allow that to cook for a minute or two
- add the carrots, bell peppers, hot pepper, celery, broccoli and salt. Stir and allow to cook for 2 minutes. Then in a small bowl combine the oyster, soya and hoisin sauces.. then add to the wok and stir.
-Now add back the pieces of cooked chicken.Stir in the chopped spinach and allow to cook for another minute before adding the cooked egg noodles. Give this a good stir to coat everything
- Now top with the chopped scallions and bean sprouts and cook for a minute. Remember to keep stirring.feel free to top the dish with about 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil for a bright finish and to add another layer of flavor.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
cut the recommended cooking time for the noodle by half as it will cook a bit further in the main lo mein pot
