Easy Chicken Chow Mein Saute image

This is a great dish to use up leftover chicken, you can also make it using turkey, once you have all the veggies chopped this dish is a really simple dish to throw together --- you may omit the chicken and serve this just as a veggie side dish, top with dry chow mein noodles if desired :)

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I've tried many chow mein recipes, but this one is by far the best. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the vegetables are crisp and colorful. The sauce is also delicious, with just the right amount of sweetness and spice.
