Chicken Chow Mein – a quick and easy takeout dish you can make at home. Packed with chicken, veggies, noodles and chow mein sauce.

This dish is one of my go-to dinners for busy weeknights, just like my Honey Lemon Chicken or the Teriyaki Chicken Stir Fry.

CHICKEN CHOW MEIN

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.

EASY CREAMY COLESLAW

One of the most popular side dishes for potlucks or BBQ dinners is hands down coleslaw. This easy, homemade Creamy Coleslaw is my go-to recipe. It’s easy and delicious! You can make it on the morning of the day you will serve it or a day before. It’s creamy, slightly sweet and tangy, just all around perfect. I love serving it with air fried or grilled chicken as well as in pulled pork sandwiches.
