If you’re looking for the best chicken chow mein recipe near you, then head straight for your kitchen and follow along with this recipe!
When it comes to chow mein, noodles love meat like meat loves sauces, and they both are head over heels in love with ALL the vegetables.
So, who are we to keep these love birds apart?
In our version of chicken chow mein, the vegetables match the meat and noodles in quantity, which makes every bite burst with freshness. (Bonus, because we’re using rotisserie chicken – it comes together in no time!) And then the whole dish is enveloped in a rich hoisin sauce that’s loaded with a copious amount of ginger to really round out the party of chicken, noodles, and vegetables.
So, if you’re in the mood for the perfect weeknight meal, boy, oh, boy. Do we have one for you!
Thoughts: Thoughts: We went crazy using bell pepper, snow peas, bok choy, and scallions for our vegetables of choice. But, you could also add mushrooms, kale, Swiss chard, arugula, celery, carrots, broccoli, or even a couple of hot peppers. This is a serious “clean out the crisper” type of meal, so go to town with what you’ve got on hand.
Other Thoughts: We’re calling this a “weeknight meal,” but it would be great for entertaining. Just serve it with some chilled libations and call it a party!

I got these for my husband and he LOVED them! Starting with the box - so well made and packaged - beautifully designed and balanced handle - everything is perfect about the knife. Great job F N Sharp!
Functional, great capacity, and beautifully made. We tossed our old knife block out, but included the old knives in with the new, as there is ample room.
