Gluten-Free Chinese Chow Mein

Ingredients:

8 oz (225g) gluten-free chow mein or rice noodles
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 lb (450g) boneless chicken breasts or tofu, cut into strips
2 cups sliced mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, carrots, and broccoli)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup gluten-free soy sauce or tamari
2 tablespoons gluten-free oyster sauce
1 tablespoon honey or a sweetener of your choice
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

Instructions:

Cook the gluten-free chow mein or rice noodles according to the package instructions until they are al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a small bowl, mix the gluten-free soy sauce (or tamari), gluten-free oyster sauce, honey, and ground ginger. Set aside.

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Add the chicken strips (or tofu) to the hot oil and stir-fry until they are cooked through and slightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and sliced mixed vegetables. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Return the cooked chicken (or tofu) to the skillet with the vegetables.

Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir to coat everything evenly and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Add the cooked gluten-free chow mein or rice noodles to the skillet. Toss and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.

Serve the gluten-free Chinese chow mein hot, garnished with sliced green onions or sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy!
