One Pot Chicken Lo Mein
One Pot Chicken Lo Mein
One pot meals are so cool! You can simmer uncooked pasta, with some broth and veggies, and it will create an almost creamy sauce. This is my one pot version of chicken lo mein.
I guess
it isn’t technically lo mein since I used linguini instead of
traditional lo mein noodles, which contain egg. But, it’s close. Pasta
tends to cook up better in one pot recipes than traditional lo mein
noodles.
