Chicken Chow Mein

Recipe #295173 | 30 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: cookee monster

This recipe comes from a cookbook called Cooking for Today Simple Chinese Recipes. The recipe says that you can use pork in place of chicken and to use Chinese egg noodles. I also add more green beans and have never used the chili sauce.
