Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chicken Lo Mein with Angel Hair Pasta.
Step 1
Start by bringing a large pot of lightly salted water to a vigorous boil over high heat.
Step 2
Once the water is bubbling, add the angel hair pasta and let it cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until it reaches that perfect al dente texture—this should take about 4 to 5 minutes.
Step 3
When it’s ready, drain the pasta in a colander and set it aside, letting it rest while you prepare the rest of the dish.
Step 4
Next, grab a skillet and heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil over medium-high heat.
Step 5
Add the chicken pieces and cook them, stirring frequently, until they’re no longer pink—this should take around 10 minutes.
Step 6
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside, allowing the flavors to mingle while you move on to the vegetables.
Step 7
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of peanut oil.
Step 8
Toss in the shredded carrots, sliced celery, and chopped green onions.
Step 9
Sauté these vibrant veggies for about 5 to 6 minutes, or until they’re tender yet still have a delightful crunch.
Step 10
The colors and aromas will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist! Now, stir in the Chinese black bean and garlic sauce, letting it cook for an additional minute to enhance those flavors.
Step 11
While the vegetables are cooking, take a moment to mix together the chicken broth, soy sauce, cornstarch, and sesame oil in a separate bowl.
Step 12
This mixture will add a rich depth to your dish.
Step 13
Pour this sauce over the cooked vegetables in the skillet and let it simmer until the sauce thickens, creating a luscious coating for your meal.
Step 14
Finally, it’s time to bring everything together! Add the drained pasta to the skillet, gently tossing it with the chicken and vegetables until every strand is well-coated and heated through.
Step 15
The aroma will be irresistible! Serve your delicious creation hot, and enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures that make this dish a true crowd-pleaser.
Step 16
Happy cooking!.
