Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh pineapple, chicken, and vegetables will give your lo mein the best flavor.

  • Cook the chicken in batches: If you try to cook all of the chicken at once, it will not cook evenly.
  • Add the vegetables last: This will prevent them from overcooking.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what will really bring your lo mein to life. Make sure to use a sauce that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro or green onions, will add a pop of color and flavor to your lo mein.
