instructions
    1

    Start by cooking the chow mein noodles according to the package instructions, usually around 5-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

    2

    While the noodles are cooking, chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

    3

    Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes until it is no longer pink, stirring occasionally.

    4

    Add minced garlic and ginger to the chicken and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

    5

    Chop the bell pepper, carrot, and green onion. Add these vegetables to the skillet with the chicken and stir-fry for another 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender, but still crisp.

    6

    Once the vegetables are cooked, add the drained noodles to the skillet.

    7

    Pour in the soy sauce and toss everything together until combined. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.

    8

    Serve hot, garnished with extra green onion if desired.
