A comforting and flavorful one-pot meal featuring tender chicken, saucy noodles, and fresh vegetables, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs (cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 8 oz lo mein noodles (fresh or dried)
  • 1 cup bell peppers (thinly sliced)
  • 1 cup carrots (julienned)
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce (regular or low-sodium)
  • 1/4 cup oyster sauce
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger (grated)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch (mixed with water)
  • Optional garnishes: green onions and sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces and slice the vegetables thinly for even cooking.
  2. Add the chicken to your crockpot. Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and chicken broth. Stir to combine.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or high for 2-3 hours until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
  4. About 30 minutes before serving, add the lo mein noodles and vegetables to the crockpot. Stir gently to ensure the noodles are submerged in the sauce.
  5. Mix the cornstarch with a couple of tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Stir it into the crockpot to thicken the sauce.
  6. Cook for an additional 20-30 minutes until the noodles are tender and the sauce has thickened.
  7. Top with green onions and sesame seeds for garnish. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

[‘Check the noodles after 15 minutes during the last cooking phase to prevent overcooking.’, ‘Taste the sauce before serving and adjust seasoning as needed.’, ‘This recipe reheats beautifully, making it ideal for leftovers.’]
