    CHICKEN CHOW MEIN
    This recipe is so completely simple and easy to make, a 10-year old can cook it. In fact, my own 10-year son cooked this recipe and it was a hit! After we gobbled down our first servings, we all agreed this meal would be on our list of family favorites.

    HERE'S ALL IT TAKES
    8 ounces of dried egg noodles or Thai rice noodles
    1 teaspoon oil
    Cook the noodles according to the directions on their package. Drain and keep warm until ready to toss into stir-fry mix.

    For the stir-fry

    1 package (12 ounce) frozen stir-fry vegetables (broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas, water chestnuts), slightly thawed
    4 green onions, chopped
    1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled & grated
    3 garlic cloves, minced
    2 tablespoons oil
    2 chicken breasts, cut into strips
    1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
    juice of 1/2 lemon
    pinch of salt and pepper to taste
    After you have all the vegetables chopped, the meat cut up into strips, and you've just dropped the noodles in the hot water.

    Heat a large skillet over medium high heat, add 2 tablespoons oil and chicken. Stir-fry it for a few minutes until golden, then move the chicken onto a plate.
    Put the garlic, ginger, and thawed vegetables EXCEPT green onions, in the frying pan. Stir-fry them for 4 to 5 minutes, turning them all the time. Add the chicken, green onions, and drained noodles. Mix everything together.

    Blend the soy sauce and lemon juice together, then pour over chow mein mixture. Salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 2 more minutes to heat through. Get out the chopsticks, it's DINNER TIME!!!
