…with Traditional Flavors of Asia

In Asia, long noodles are a symbol of longevity. For this reason they are always served during birthday celebrations, or Chinese New Year, when many are accustomed to celebrating their birthdays (i.e., everyone turns a year older during the Chinese New Year). Here, wheat noodles are tossed with a colorful vegetable and chicken stir-fry, simply seasoned with soy sauce. Serve this noodle dish with sweet chili sauce on the side.

Cover Recipe — Chinese New Year Noodlesi n g r E d i E n t s

1 package KA-ME Lo Mein Noodles2 Tbsp. stir-fry oil1/4 cup soy sauce8 oz. skinless chicken breast,

thinly sliced against the grain6 oz. snow peas, bok choy leaves,

or broccoli florets8 shiitake mushrooms, stems

discarded, and caps thinly sliced

d i r E c t i o n s

Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles until tender yet firm, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon stir-fry oil over high heat and stir-fry the chicken with 1 tablespoon soy sauce until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add 1 tablespoon stir-fry oil to the same skillet and stir-fry the snow peas, bok choy or broccoli florets with the mushrooms until just tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer to the same plate.

In the same skillet add the remaining stir-fry oil and stir-fry the garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the noodles, chicken and vegetable stir-fry to the skillet. Toss well to distribute the ingredients evenly. Season with the remaining soy sauce and sesame oil. Add black pepper to taste and toss until heated through. Serve hot, garnished with scallions. Serves 6.
