Chicken Chow Mein

March 9, 2020 by Anna 6 Comments

Chicken Chow Mein is a quick and easy takeout dish you can make at home from scratch. It’s packed with chicken, veggies, noodles and the best sauce ever!

This dish is one of my go-to dinners for busy weeknights, just like my Shrimp Stir Fry or the 10-Minute Garlic Noodles.

Asian stir fry dinners are on our weekly menu and I am happy to add another new recipe to my collection. This Chicken Chow Mein is as easy and quick to make as my other Asian takeout dinner recipes. All you need is chicken, veggies, noodles and basic ingredients for the sauce. Grab a wok or a large skillet and a pot to cook the noodles and you can have dinner ready in under 30 minutes! For a vegetarian chow mein, use 6 to 8 ounces of mushrooms in place of the chicken.

Braised Red Cabbage is a healthy German side dish made. This sweet and sour dish calls for only a handful of ingredients.

Serve it with Pork Schnitzel or pork tenderloin and potatoes for a nutritious and hearty dinner.

This is one of my favorite ways to prepare red cabbage. If I don’t turn it into a slaw, I braise for a sweet and sour side. I shredded my cabbage thin so it does not have to cook for an hour. If you want to make it more traditional way, chop it roughly and braise for 45 to 50 minutes.

Fried Cabbage with bacon is a simple yet flavorful side dish made with just a few ingredients. Make it in 20 minutes or up to 2 days ahead.

Serve this cabbage with Pork Schnitzel or Mushroom Pork Chops and Mashed Potatoes.

Fried Cabbage is an Irish side dish, but doesn’t have to be served only on St. Patrick’s Day. This dish is quick and delicious and perfect served with pork, chicken or sausage. I start with cooking bacon and then fry the onion and cabbage in the bacon grease. Talk about delicious! You can use it as a side dish or as a topping on grilled sausage or brats.
